why would u want to switch from cubase to sonar? dont they do exaclty the same only sonar is even more dificult?

Propellerheads should release Thor, Redrum, etc. as VSTs

They could charge more than they charge for Reason and everyone would still buy them...


I know you can ReWire into Cubase but I've never bothered to try. Cubase does everything I need.

You're right. It is more complicated. But it's also said to be the best DAW at the moment with the most frequent updates and innovative features. I'm not sure I would switch, but I'd like to be able to try it out and see if it would give me an even better workflow. I have yet to figure out what makes it so popular..

Thor I'd buy. The rest of their "gear" is pretty much outdated when compared to today's vsti's IMO.
Redrum vs battery/RMV is no contest.
NNXT vs kontakt - same thing.
Same goes for most of the effects and subtractor.

Personally I'd rather buy rebirth as a VST

But propheads will never release something like that.

scream distortion is also good imo.

I think a lot of people on this site have more creativity than many famous producers. They just don't have as much skill at mixing and mastering, so their tracks sound less "professional."

+1

Are there any 'famous' artists who just use Reason to produce? I guess these days working with a variety of tools and software is better, so I will to be more specific.
Are there any 'famous' artists who use Reason as the primary production unit?

Which of you people out there use just Reason or mainy Reason to create your tunes? Can you post a link - myspace etc of where I can hear some stuff? I am addicted to Reason and understand there are plenty of other just as beautiful programs out there... but I just can't get myself to close Reason down to try any of them.

Famous ppl? I don't think so. It makes sense if you think about it:
Most producers who have the funds use hardware; at least some hardware synths. And, as anyone with a hardware synth will tell you, once you get it, you're pretty much forced to use another daw like logic, cubase, sonar etc. And tbh even if you did hear some famous artist say they're working on reason, chances are they're getting payed to say it.
However, i did hear prodigy used it as a sketch tool for their album. But they finished it in protools so I'm not sure that counts.
AFAIK Many producers use it to get ideas down fast, or rewired to a VST host like cubase.
Still, I'm sure there are ppl who can get a good sound with reason, it's not impossible, it just a lot easier to do it using quality VST's IMO.

Bzt completely wrong there are tons of artists that use reason exclusively.

Check out my myspace if you don't believe that you can get quality sounds out of mostly reason. I take advantage of rewire if i really need to in certain cases, though it is rare.

Why so defensive?
I never said you couldn't get quality sound from reason.
But you still failed to name a single famous producer who uses reason exclusively..

DJ Eco, Re ward, Daniel Kandi, BT(not exclusively though). Reason is not the best option for EDM but it is extremely powerful and can be adapted for anything if you have some creativity and originality.

I like Reason for its simplicity...I ReWire into ProTools and BAM!
Everything I need
