Reason
4.0
Reason is more than a program its a creative
revolution. Its changing the way people approach modern computer-based
music, blurring the boundaries between music genres. More than an infinitely
expandable studio on a CD-ROM, more than analog synths, samplers, drum machines,
loop players, effects, and pattern sequencers, Reason is the beginning of
a new era of electronic music.
Reason is:
A SELF
CONTAINED MUSIC SYSTEM
Everything you need is there: An infinite number of great sounding devices
with a fast and flexible sequencer.
A
SUB-SYSTEM SYNCED TO YOUR AUDIO SEOUENCER
Process Reasons audio output with plug-in effects and mix it with your
hard disk tracks.
A VIRTUAL
SYNTH RACK WITH YOUR MIDI SEQUENCER
Reasons devices function exactly as their hardware counterparts.
All of Reasons devices have the look and feel of the real thing, but
more importantly they have the sound, performance and attitude to rival any
hardware out there. Reason hooks up to your MIDI keyboard faster than you
can say Revolutionary Software, giving you MIDI control of all devices, knobs,
faders and parameters.
Whether youre a producer or a bedroom DJ, a pro or a beginner, sounding
this good has never been so easy. Reason provides all the tools you need to
create, edit and mix your music, your way, all within the comfort of your
own computer. Reason is the final word on software synthesis - proving at
last that software can sound harder than hardware.
Features include:

a virtual studio with the tools you need to turn your musical ideas into
reality. Whether you need a quick drum machine pattern to practice to,
or a whole band with real drums, piano, and an array of cool loops swirling
around, Reason version 4 is the place to do it.
Known as a creative
tool by artists and producers everywhere, Reason is a totally expandable,
software-based, music workstation for Mac or PC. Step into the age of
Reason and learn more about the software that will turn your home studio
