I see a lot of folks saying VST support took too long. IMO it's not that bad. But how it's integrated with how Reason already operates, is icing on the cake. Stability and creativity are the keys here. You now have both. Be grateful. And humble. Sit down. Make beats!
Back in the day I started with Rebirth and then with Reason, I was quite far from knowing how lucky I was by chosing Propellerhead. Now I'm pretty sure it was one of my best professional choices... ever! Thank you, guys!
thanks Reason, been with you since Reason 4, I make all my Television and Movie Score music in reason. Propellerhead changed my life and in many ways saved it, through it I was able to make and meet friends. TY Reason!
Coming from an "old head" (producing/engineering for 16 years) Vst are my bread and butter... beta testing since day one of the anouncement.. Ive been using Reason since version 5....Nice implementation but def can see room for improvment... Adding vst's just made reason go from "bedroom producer" status to SERIOUS contender for BEST DAW... kudos!!!
Reason has run ahead of the pack with this. Build creative ideas much faster than any daw and now we have the vst instruments and plug-ins. Boom! Champions!
I can't tell you enough how awesome this is I've been using reason since 2003 and I will be using it until 2033... Thank you so much for making vst's available.. My beatz have gone to a new level 🔊🔉🔊🔉🔊💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
Surprisingly Reason becomes the most powerful DAW for experimenting and writing any kind of genres music. I'm not sure if I'm still in love with the latest version of Ableton Live. But I've already download a Reason 9.5.
Really well implemented, unique and easily accessible routing possibilities. This approach towards handling VSTs makes Reason one of the best and most creative DAWs. It also allows a great workflow, really well done Propellerhead. Now the only thing missing for me is music notation (like Sibelius). Perhaps in Reason 10 :)
RE's makers must love this move. VSTs have such a sonic impact. Wow. Imagine if they did this years ago. Before the bitwigs. Making music is something that is becoming something anyone and everyone is doing, more as a hobby than for $$. Reason is making it so simple and stable now to produce.
Man i have always been a fan of Reason/Propellerhead but a time came when I could not justify just working in Reason/Record and ignoring a world of VSTs out there. I went to Ableton and loved it, then I went to Logic X and loved it too. But seeing this video I realize how much I fucking LOVE the Propellerhead workflow, logic and simplicity. This is seriously making me want to jump ship, get out of everything else and come back home to Reason. But this time with VSTs. Man this is exciting AF!!!!
Thank you guys from Propellerhead! Excellent! Finally! Last night I made the upgrade, and it works - fantastic! Finally I do not have to jump from one platform to another, now I'm working with all my VST's in one comfortable lounger :) Oh yes, it was worth the wait!
Because of VSTs, I feel more comfortable investing in Reason. I was seriously considering switching. I'll actually buy more RE's because of the inclusion of VST's
Best day ever! Been going back and forth between Ableton and Reason, but I always preferred Reason and worked better and more creatively in it. The only thing that kept bringing me back to Ableton was VSTs and I really like Push. Yeah..I know, Rewire and all..but that eats up a lot of system resources. Now I can say goodbye to Ableton. Not to mention the Pusher software for Push works fantastically in Reason. I'm Reason all the way now...way to go guys!
have not messed with reason since 3.0 and i remember it being some what of a learning curve to get into the functionality..but ..this new reason and vst support ..wow.they have simplified things so much and made it more user friendly...may have to check it out
17 years ago I started to love the reasons inovative inspiring way to produce music. I sticked to it a while but massively missed a standard DAW recording posibillity as well as vsti. So even though I still am intrigued about reasons workflow my soul is sold to Ableton... and You Propellerheads guys made me do it !
This is the greatest news by far this year this just made Propellerhead cream of the crop! What's next in Reason Version 10 (Auto Punch in & out Recording, Metronome sound changing capabilities, Mobile Production for Producers on the go) Hint hint add this to wish list Propellerhead. Excellent Job you guys keep it up!!
When it comes to metronome sound changing abilities, you might want to check out Metrotone. It's a Rack Extension in our shop by Robotic Bean which offers alternative metronome sounds. You can choose from the clicks from other DAWs or load your own favorite sample to use as a click. For 9 bucks it's cheaper than a Reason upgrade and would give you the feature right away, if you just add it to your new song template. /ryan
This is fantastic, I always wanted to use vst but after spending a grip on ableton and that shit would crash all the time I just gave up. Been using them with reason and it hasn't had any issue, so happy about this. =)
This is obviously good news for Reason users, and I'm happy that they now finally get to enjoy the full extend of what is out there. But I also can't help being cynical about this too. Because basically Propellerhead tries to sell us the same products, _twice_. People who already owned certain commercial VST's had no choice but to buy them again through rack extensions if they wanted to use them with Reason. So now here we are: you get to pay even more (upgrade) so that you can finally use your actual VST's. But at what costs? In the long run (looking over the years) I think it's fair to say that this move has turned Reason into one of the most expensive DAW's out there. Even though the approach has always been that as being a somewhat underdog. But one with big pockets it seems ;)
and by the way... I got my first gig in TV music because i was able to do mixer re-patches in the studio because of always routing my reason instruments in the software. some guys didn't even know what CV and Gates were for.. LOVE Reason!!
I recently missed to get the Synapse Audio sequenzer called Orion with some nice built in synths, the auction was over and someone got it under 10 bucks, now searching for the "Dune 2" synth according to this video where you are demonstrating it and this neat insturments still costs 169 euro! 0.0
started with R3 now we here! quick question, how to trigger a drum machine VST (Battery 4 ect) via the Redrum 16 step sequencer? It is possible via the MIDI notes in the sequencer but not Redrum rack. Thanks, keep up the amazing work!!!
Is there a place to share features suggestions for Reason ? like some UI improvements, like a vertical line within the sequencer showing the position of the pencil on the timeline when adding notes. A middle mouse click action, like a circle tool selector. And a combination of keys to zoom in-out horizontally, without the need to move the mini-viewer at the bottom. And a better appearance and/or a dockable function for external panels like the tools window, and the on-screen piano keyboard. And a user customisable shortcuts, to replace the Q and W keys on azerty keyboard with A and Z :)
So happy about this. I got tired from going to Reaon to Logic then back to Reason just to use my VST's. But I noticed some of my vst's didn't show up in reason 9.5 like my Rob Papen and my DCAM synth. Is there a reason why it didn't show?
Hey guys, loving the addition of VSTs, but there's something I've been thinking about: Is it possible to automate VSTs with the knobs and buttons on the Combinator?
Sure. It works very much like you'd expect. The VST developer exposes their controls to the host for automation and control and those show up in the Combinator programmer where they can be assigned just like any Reason device. /ryan
What you didn't cover is routing audio into and out of FX VSTs. My example right now would be Equivocate. I'm trying to rout the sidechain from one Equivocate to another. I've tried using the extra audio i/o, but it's not working. So how would one go about achieving this?
Love that now I can use VST's in Reason 9. But I'm using The Miroslav Philharmonyc 2 VST, and I havn't founded how to use various orchestral intruments by using the diferent midi channels (1,2,3,4, etc) instead of opening a lot of Miroslav's racks. The Same for Kontakt. Is there a way to do it?
This is the most great thing I've experienced with Reason! Thanks for the upgrade. Although all works perfect, I am still missing my Altiverb VST plugin. Probably a bug?
Hello, is it possible to adjust key off/ note off velocity in Reason? I'm currently using Reason 9.5 and to properly trigger my Ample Sound guitar and bass libraries Reason must recognize or accommodate the adjustment of key off velocity. No info anywhere on the subject.
no I've owned reason for a very long long time.. but also own cubase / sonar / studio one.. so fan boys are the ones moaning about folk saying how it is.. e.g. a few years back someone didn't care about 64 bit.. but i said , it's great for things like kontakt and disk streaming etc.. the person who was responding, didn't have a clue.. only that reason was the best...lol
I use a lot of different DAWs, including Reason, but your comment actually makes you sound like a Reason fanboy. At the end of the day, you have no idea who disliked the video, it could be someone who uses Reason who just doesnt care for VST's. Calling someone a fanboy for using what ever DAW they feel comfortable with and helps them be their most creative sounds extremely immature. I use several DAWs and they all offer things the other doesnt.
Jon Lindsey I respect your comment. I personally use Native Instruments kontakt, but I didn't dislike the video. I didn't call anybody a fanboy for "using whatever DAW they feel comfortable with using." How do you call somebody immature over the internet, when you have never met that person before?
will reason every come up with REX adapt to project key function if it can sync to bpm why not key? I'm tired of having to manually transpose every loop I'm dealing with.
I have so much to learn!! Y have been producing lot of instrumental music and recently I started to explore electronic sounds. How can I make a powerfull kick in reason? I have used subtractor, malmastom and the others to make some kicks, but it sound weak.
I have been a Reason user since 2003 and have receive the news about VST's with joy. However, the absence of multi timbrality means that I am unable to use more than just a few VST's per project. When I contacted Propellerhead, they suggested using the "bounce in place" feature, for those big orchestral compositions which require 20 Kontakt VST's, but we all know that this isn't practical at all. I still hope that they solve this as it is furstrating to have a 4ghz, 32 Gb Ram machine and having Reason crash at the slightest whiff of multi VST usage.
How to hide the white border at the top of Reason 11 third party vst plugins ? Mine is huge and and is not needed when not in use. When I use third party vst's in other daw's I just get the Daw interface.
Don't worry guys a true Reason user best keyboard key is 'Tab', if some are feared about cables and routing, they've better use Magix Music Maker. I didn't buy Reason 2.5 to drag and drop presets, but to play with the back rack holes ^^
Ugh, need to get Steinberg to create some VST 2 effects and instruments for Mac. They only provide VST 3 and AU, the two versions not yet supported in Reason.
It's the wild west out there of free and commercial VSTs, but if you want some place to start looking you can check out our Propellerhead Shop because we've added some of our favorite VSTs to the shop. shop.propellerheads.se
Actually Xfer Records' Serum is available in our own Propellerhead shop too - along with many other plugins by iZotope, Output, KV331, U-he, and more to come. /ryan
+Propellerhead so if you buy a vst through the store then it will show up with the rest of your purchases? and it can be downloaded to a new computer along with all your other REs when you install a new computer? that would be great. are there plans to add more vsts?
agreed . they had the technology to do this years ago i believe. they enjoyed the fact you had to use thier vst's but people kept pushing them to make it so they could use thier own. even fl studio offered such tecnology and free updates so to me i feel they used us and i dont use reason as much anymore.
I'm ready to buy Reason right now. Do you have any upcoming sales/discounts/specials like you did in March where you were giving away $340 worth of stuff? I'd love it if I could get the A list electric guitarist and / or radical piano with my Reason purchase
Rhys Huntley I just couldn't wait anymore and ended up buying it today... I've been a long time follower and demo user and this is my first Reason purchase.. I feel like I've picked the perfect time now with VST support included. I'll just have to save up a bit more buy A list guitarist separately I guess
will 9.5 ever add support for using VSTs while in rewire mode? This was one of the main reasons I wanted to upgrade to 9, super bummed that 9.5 doesn't currently support it. If there are no plans to ever support it, why not? I have been looking around a lot of forums and seen many posts of people who say they aren't going to bother to upgrade if VSTs cant be loaded in rewire mode. I think it would definitely help sales. I think there are a lot of people out there sitting on old versions of Reason that they never use because they have settled into another DAW. I use Pro Tools for my main DAW and it's going to take a heck of a lot of changes in Reason for me to ever consider switching over to it as my main DAW. But I have always missed the flexible MIDI features in Reason and I just don't see why you guys don't fully embrace the market niche of being everybody's #1 supplementary DAW. I mean, if you guys were to support VSTs in rewire mode and, equally as cool, support audio routing directly into Reason from Pro Tools while in rewire mode, then, dang, that would be like a super DAW that no one has ever seen the likes of! This video makes me want those two things even more!
The simplified-technical answer is that ReWire technology and VST host technology shares common resources that makes running VSTs while in ReWire slave mode something we aren't currently supporting. But it's worth noting that it's not unique to us. If Ableton Live, for example, is running as a ReWire slave it also doesn't allow for VSTs for the same technical reason. /ryan
Hey Ryan, thanks for the reply! Yeah I was bummed when I got the Ableton trial and found that out, but I'd rather use Reason anyway. I read somewhere online that Fruity Loops is capable of running in rewire mode and supporting VSTs but I am not sure if that is true. Im on Mac so I cant download a demo, I can only buy it and then run some Mac Beta version they have. Too risky to try out. Anyway I'm really looking for what Reason has to offer anyway. I guess I was just bringing it up because apparently according to someone out there on the internet it is possible to host VSTs when a DAW is running in rewire mode. Again, I am not sure how true this is, I only read it on the internet. I actually already upgraded to Reason 9 since it was a pretty good deal going from 7, and I got the 9.5 beta. I definitely will be messing around with it now in standalone mode and making some tracks solely in Reason. Who knows, maybe I'll find the workflow to be as good as Pro Tools. But in the end I'm pretty sure I'll be sticking with Pro Tools for the most part and only using Reason in rewire mode, and then use the standalone version every once in a while if I am trying to do something midi crazy with a VST. Of course I'll end up importing that back into Pro Tools, which is the reason I'm so bummed about the lack of the feature in the first place. Thanks again for the reply! I am just trying get the voice out there of the poeple who prefer to use reason in rewire mode. Hopefully one day you guys will support the VSTs in rewire mode. I noticed you said "aren't currently", which is way better than "are never going to"!

I switched to another DAW just so I can use VSTs, almost 2 years ago. Today I upgraded Reason. I can finally go back home now!

Great news! Now the only thing Reason still needs is a built-in video sync feature, then it would be the perfect DAW.

The evolution of this SW from the OG reason to this is unreal.
Best day ever! Been going back and forth between Ableton and Reason, but I always preferred Reason and worked better and more creatively in it.

Just wonderful. Now I can exclusively use Reason for ALL my musical projects!

I think this is probably where I started getting into Output's stuff.

How do we manage VSTi with multiple inputs and multiple (stereo) outputs ?

Actually Xfer Records' Serum is available in our own Propellerhead shop too - along with many other plugins by iZotope, Output, KV331, U-he, and more to come. /ryan
Excellent. Didn't know you guys have added VSTs to the Prop shop
+Propellerhead so if you buy a vst through the store then it will show up with the rest of your purchases? and it can be downloaded to a new computer along with all your other REs when you install a new computer? that would be great. are there plans to add more vsts?
Will reason plugins get the vst version???
Wow! Just frickin' wow!
agreed . they had the technology to do this years ago i believe. they
enjoyed the fact you had to use thier vst's but people kept pushing them
to make it so they could use thier own. even fl studio offered such
tecnology and free updates so to me i feel they used us and i dont use
reason as much anymore.
Will this work the same for Reason 6.5.3??? I know I need to upgrade money rough right now
hi i have a question, does reason 9.5 works with the access virus ti software??
are there soms free VST's? That would be great.
its not showing up the presets of the plugins i use neither does it show native instruments plugins why? i can't solve it can u help me?
I'm ready to buy Reason right now. Do you have any upcoming sales/discounts/specials like you did in March where you were giving away $340 worth of stuff? I'd love it if I could get the A list electric guitarist and / or radical piano with my Reason purchase
They had a May Madness sale that ended a few days ago - there won't be a big sale like that for a while now. :(
Rhys Huntley I just couldn't wait anymore and ended up buying it today... I've been a long time follower and demo user and this is my first Reason purchase.. I feel like I've picked the perfect time now with VST support included. I'll just have to save up a bit more buy A list guitarist separately I guess
sorry, I'm new to this, what reason are you using in the video?
This was 9.5
Reason 2.5 my first DAW 🙏🏼
will 9.5 ever add support for using VSTs while in rewire mode? This was one of the main reasons I wanted to upgrade to 9, super bummed that 9.5 doesn't currently support it. If there are no plans to ever support it, why not? I have been looking around a lot of forums and seen many posts of people who say they aren't going to bother to upgrade if VSTs cant be loaded in rewire mode. I think it would definitely help sales.
I think there are a lot of people out there sitting on old versions of Reason that they never use because they have settled into another DAW. I use Pro Tools for my main DAW and it's going to take a heck of a lot of changes in Reason for me to ever consider switching over to it as my main DAW.
But I have always missed the flexible MIDI features in Reason and I just don't see why you guys don't fully embrace the market niche of being everybody's #1 supplementary DAW. I mean, if you guys were to support VSTs in rewire mode and, equally as cool, support audio routing directly into Reason from Pro Tools while in rewire mode, then, dang, that would be like a super DAW that no one has ever seen the likes of!
This video makes me want those two things even more!
The simplified-technical answer is that ReWire technology and VST host technology shares common resources that makes running VSTs while in ReWire slave mode something we aren't currently supporting. But it's worth noting that it's not unique to us. If Ableton Live, for example, is running as a ReWire slave it also doesn't allow for VSTs for the same technical reason. /ryan
Hey Ryan, thanks for the reply! Yeah I was bummed when I got the Ableton trial and found that out, but I'd rather use Reason anyway.
I read somewhere online that Fruity Loops is capable of running in rewire mode and supporting VSTs but I am not sure if that is true. Im on Mac so I cant download a demo, I can only buy it and then run some Mac Beta version they have. Too risky to try out. Anyway I'm really looking for what Reason has to offer anyway. I guess I was just bringing it up because apparently according to someone out there on the internet it is possible to host VSTs when a DAW is running in rewire mode. Again, I am not sure how true this is, I only read it on the internet.
I actually already upgraded to Reason 9 since it was a pretty good deal going from 7, and I got the 9.5 beta. I definitely will be messing around with it now in standalone mode and making some tracks solely in Reason. Who knows, maybe I'll find the workflow to be as good as Pro Tools. But in the end I'm pretty sure I'll be sticking with Pro Tools for the most part and only using Reason in rewire mode, and then use the standalone version every once in a while if I am trying to do something midi crazy with a VST. Of course I'll end up importing that back into Pro Tools, which is the reason I'm so bummed about the lack of the feature in the first place. Thanks again for the reply! I am just trying get the voice out there of the poeple who prefer to use reason in rewire mode. Hopefully one day you guys will support the VSTs in rewire mode. I noticed you said "aren't currently", which is way better than "are never going to"!
Great!🔝😎
Ja dalej tworzę na Reason 4.0 i Record czyli Reason Duo! Pozdrawiam!
