I think you shouldn't use Reason for making progressive tracks. Reason is mainly useful for trance tracks, I think, at least it is mostly designed for this type of music.

*lol*



it's possible. In fact you can do awesome manipulations to loops and beats if you know what you're doing. If I find the time, I will post some examples...

Hi people,

This thread is really useful.
Thanks Trancevision for creating it.

Well I have one question:

If anyone of you heard m.o.r.p.h - mxm overdrive (3rd mix)
maybe you noticed this awesome sound which starts at 3:22 mark in original mix.
I cant understand how did he do that sound.
But I think it's modulation of filter envelope parameters.

If someone of you understand what I'm talking about ,please
let me know what you think about this great effect in this track.

Thanks.

Post a sample, Fractal, you're more likely to get a response. : )

ok:

probably an astonishingly obvious tip, but ive only just noticed it....so one or two n00bs may find it useful or something:/
We all know those meaty thuimpy kicks, like the ones dumonde use sometimes, but a more acurate example is the one used in Talla 2XLC - can you feel the silence (club mix)..

Anyhow, you get a meaty/heavy kick, then you compress it/eq it to get it 'thumpier' so to speak. You may want to take the volume down at this point. Anyhow, then you layer a snare over the top. The kind of one that you would use in a trance snare roll...not a really hard snare though. Then lower the volume so the effect is still ntocible, but it isnt opbvious that its a snare.
Ive found that this has given a nice little edge to my kicks....

anyhow theres the crappiest tip in the thread over and done with

dont know if this has been mentioned before, but ive noticed Dumonde kicks sometimes have a very quiet, very short, reverese kick going into there main kick. if u can do it right it can add alot of energy to ur tunes.

Yeah i've noticed that as well ^^

i've also noticed that some kicks seem to have a closed hat layerey with the kick/snare as well.

Please ignore this if its been already mentioned (This thread is far to big for me to check all the posts), or i am stating the obvious...

I find that wacking an envelope on your hi-hats can keep the rhythm of your tracks nice and tight. any who has a high hat sample that they're using with alot of resonance after it might want to consider this...

like i said, im probably stating the obvious...
