these are the type of videos that should be on the reason studios channel, always frustrates me that they dont support content creators (like yourself) that are offering the advice to reason users that reason studios are too lazy to create for the users themselves
Thanks! They support from time to time. They shared my subtractor video. Highlight of the channel so far… It’s interesting because I’ve never seen a DAW with such a cult-like following. (FL, maybe) They could lean into it more. You are right in that regard. Oh and they could fix the sequencer. 😑 (Rack is nearly perfect, tho) Thanks for your comment!
Thank you. I never knew how to move the end marker quickly. I even looked it up to no avail. Can't wait to try all these after work today! Great 5 tips.
Great tips. Here's another one. Put the left locator on the right side of the right locator to jump to different areas during playback. It's a good way to test out different areas during arrangement.
Love these Reason videos man! Well done! I’ve been using Reason since version 3 and still don’t think people understand how powerful it is when you take the time to learn these shortcuts. Keep these coming man!
Great channel Mr Quasar. I've been on Reason for a very long time and didn't know most of these tricks, and already planning to use your Sidechain EQ tips to create room in my tracks. Nice genuine presentation style without all the hype and shouting that usually makes me run away. Thanks man!
Not sure if it was already mentioned: if you have a keyboard with number block, you can use Numpad 1 to jump to the Left Location, Numpad 2 for the Right Locator, Numpad * to start recording, Numpad / to toggle the loop, Enter to start playback and so on... those ones are really handy. And especially if you come from Cubase, this will help, as the keys are laid out the same way
@@itsdjQuasar do you have any recommendations on using an external hard drive to run audio from and to as a 2nd hard drive? Be a great video for us Reason users! My 2012 MacBook Pro is bogging down now…
@@mattavalon hmmm.. that's an interesting one. I do use an external but mostly for soundbanks (omnishpere, kontakt, etc.) I use a smansung ssd. It also helps with video editing. In fact, I eally only needed it for video editing (where you need really fast seek times to keep the video smooth) otherwise, audio is not the most taxing thing for your computer to render. So an SSD in music production will give you more space or spread the load (a tad) but it wont make the hugest difference in performance (except that your patches will load faster wich is nice but not necessary). Performance will be more based on processor and RAM. As far a I can tell. To sum up: -If the problem is Kontakt (or similar) taking way to long to load the samples, an SSD can help. -If the problem is Reason can no longer handle high track counts and stutters if you add too many plugins? SSD can't do much for that. Did that help?
@@itsdjQuasar thank you for the great response. Since I’ve started bouncing to audio from plug-ins like Arcade by Output, it’s stared stuttering a lot. I upgraded the HDD on the 2012 pro which helped a lot, especially with boot up time. I have maxed the RAM to 16gb (8 each slot). Think it’s an i5 processor 2.5GHz. I have a couple of ssd usb 1TB drives so might experiment. How do I locate and allocate the audio bounced parts, so they can be read by the system… bit confusing. Appreciate your advice!
Yeah you are correct. I was on laptop when I made this video so no number pad. I've since learned all the number pad shortcuts. Thanks again for watching!
tip 5 already has a key bind per default its in the number side of the keyboard. 1 & 2. bunch of them are of use btw. to record, create new track with the same effects, erase track that was armed.
Yeah, I was on a Mac laptop at the time. Didn't consider the number pad. But it may help for peeps in that position. Perhaps I should revisit this in another tips video. Thanks for watching! 🖤
@@itsdjQuasar aww yeah i didn't think about that. good call. yw. good stuff. randomly foudn your channel thru reason's subreddit. people were asking about youtubers who use reason
Hey Mr.M ;) please let me know what i'm doing wrong, now i'm on R12, but when i want to edit keyboard control mapping, like to press and receive key A as you did, i do have response in key received field, but nothing happens, it is just like i didn't do anything (nothing is assigned to that key). Don't know what i'm doing wrong? Friend help needed :)
hello from latinoamerica, can you help me, what is the structure of a beat or instrumental, because if I make music for example tiktok or youtube shorts, I must to do a 4 or 3 minutes long beat? or a more compact ?
A lot to do with the sequencer. -MIDI capture (records midi all the time so you don’t miss that cool thing you just played) -MIDI comping -MPE -VST 3 (duh, haha) -Automatic fades as an option -Slide notes like FL/Ableton -“Fold” midi to only see the notes you’ve written - I wish you could map modifier keys for things. Hitting “R” for razor and then “Q” to go back to pointer is tedious. If I could just hold down a modifier or if they had a smart tool…. What about you? What’s on your wishlist? Thanks for the comment and for watching!
@@itsdjQuasar those things you said i want too i used them in studio one besides vst3, i dont use outside effects only RE. for my 22 years experience every daw has things i dont like 😂 so i sat back and ask myself what features are very important to me and which ones i can go without. but still get job done. 1. i do it for a hobby 2. i use daws for business i record mix & master alot of artist
@@itsdjQuasar For me it's in no particular order: 1) Folding track groups 2) Muting/Soloing group tracks in the sequencer 3) Able to drag tracks using other than only the small darker bar on the far left 4) Disable focus on play cursor (different from follow song), aka just centring the selected block when pressing enter (just like "Z" works) 5) bigger dots in automation 6) Better fitting colors 7) Bigger fold arrows 8) Track names below eachother regardless of automation tracks are active or nog (I use nektar so use the sequencer to navigate devices, sometimes hard to find because the names are all over the place)
You forgot the loop feature by pressing the letter "P" on the keyboard - highlight any box in the sequencer and use "P" to automatically loop that section
So I was on a laptop at the time so no number pad but I still use that shortcut to have the key on my left hand while mousing with my right. Thanks for watching!
These are my favourite shortcuts in Reason Win. Numpad Enter Start playing 0 Stop 1 Move to the Left Locator 2 Move to the Right Locator 3/6 New note lane 4/7 One bar back 5/8 One bar forward 9 "click" on or off / Loop on or off Ctrl+P PreClick on or off
Hope these help you all out!

Your welcome! Have fun and thanks for watching!
Just press 1, or 2 on the num pad
To Jump to the Left marker, press Numpad 1. Right marker, Numpad 2. Prev/Next bar, Numpad 7/8.
There's more on numpad but that's what I use the most.
Yeah. I was on a mac Laptop when I made this video. No number pad. You are correct, tho!
1:00 Shift+Z will fit selection to screen both verticall and horizontally (like tapping Z twice in Ableton) :)
Good one! Thanks for watching!
Wow! The End tip and L R tip was something I didn't know. Thanks Q.
Thanks!
You are the GOAT because I could not find these features in the manual.
Glad to have helped! Thanks for watching!
the razor tip is golden thank you

Been using reason since 2.0 and I don’t even wanna say how many of these I didn’t know!!😅😅
Thanks for watching! See you Friday with the next one!
Thank you for this video, very helpful!!!!
Nice tips for working more efficiently in the reason sequencer. Cheers for sharing ;) and keep them vids coming.
Thanks for watching! Will do!
Great tips, thanks for sharing

Learning hot keys is a must.
Absolutely!
Great tips. :)
Thanks! More coming!
the amount of time saving you just allowed us.. tip 1 was huge for me

You forgot one: if you press shift+z, you have the whole project view (as far as it goes in terms of track height)
oooh... good one!

Is there a way to Display Time duration and markers in Minutes and Seconds? Or SMTE time code?
How can one see midi notes in multiple tracks simultaneously
CTRL select each region. Hit enter.
damn bruv, looks like somebody around here actually has read the manual ;) *wonder if an old dog like myself can learn these new tricks ? lol

Why setup a shortcut for locator positions? It already exists. Num Pad 1 & 2
So I was on a laptop at the time so no number pad but I still use that shortcut to have the key on my left hand while mousing with my right. Thanks for watching!
@@itsdjQuasar ahhh. makes more sense now
These are my favourite shortcuts in Reason Win.

4/7 One bar back
5/8 One bar forward
9 "click" on or off

Ctrl+P PreClick on or off
