I've been using it for 20 years now and love it. ----- ### "Amazing Production Tool" — 5.0/5 > **Kevin** | *16 February 2024* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The samples are of the highest audio quality, with adequate output options. There's a basically unlimited amount of options available, when you consider all the different modules and all the various parameters you can adjust for each. If you're into techno music production, Reason is an absolute must. > > **Cons**: It can be overwhelming, when you first see everything available to you. The learning curve can also be pretty steep. > > I stuck with it for a while and watched a lot of tutorials on YouTube, before I really understood the nuances of Reason. In the end though, I've been rewarded with, in my opinion, the absolute best production tool for techno music. Don't let that mislead you though, Reason is a perfectly capable music production tool for most any genre. ----- ### "A Classic All-In-One DAW" — 5.0/5 > **Jeremy** | *20 December 2022* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Reason has survived for 20+ years because of its simple, inviting interface. Need a new synth? Grab it from the browser on the left and animated wires connect it to your virtual "rack". This app was revolutionary back in the 2000s, and remains an innovative and crucial music tool. It's a complete audio solution, and can even run as a plugin inside other DAWs now. > > **Cons**: Even with all the updates and evolution to a full-featured DAW, Reason can feel cramped and limiting. The constant vertical scrolling can become simply annoying, and the severe lack of keyboard shortcuts ensures that you'll be scrolling and clicking all day long, which slows down production. > > I first adopted Reason back in the early aughts, and it was a critical tool for creating techno beats and loops. Nowadays, most DAWs feature competitive looping tools and synths, so I don't use Reason that much anymore. But when I want to layer loops 90s-style, I love reaching for Dr. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and cranking out some phat beats. ----- ### "A Longtime Reason User’s Perspective on the New Reasons 12" — 5.0/5 > **Geoffrey** | *29 September 2022* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a longtime Reason user, I can say that Reason 12 is an impressive update. It offers many new features and capabilities that will benefit your music production workflow. My favorite new features include the redesigned sequencer, the powerful new synthesizers, and the updated Rack Extensions. These new features make Reason 12 an even more powerful DAW than ever. If you're looking for a powerful and versatile DAW, I recommend giving Reason 12 a try. Whether you're a seasoned pro or starting, Reason 12 has something for everyone. You won't be disappointed. > > **Cons**: The one downside to Reason 12 is that it's not yet native to the Macintosh M1 chipset. This means that you can't use all of the new features and capabilities in Reason 12 natively. This is a bit of a downside for Mac users, but hopefully, this will be fixed in future updates. > > I've been using Reason since the 1999 Beta; when Record came out, I switched over as my dedicated DAW in 2004. In 2022, I now use Reason in the Rosetta mode (since it's not native yet to the M1 chip on the Mac) and still use it for specific uses that it offers. As a DAW, it's so impressive for what comes in Reason 12 - it's impressive\! It's a one-stop shop for a DAW that anyone could wish for. ----- ### "Reason is perfect for technically gifted sound engineers." — 5.0/5 > **Roan** | *9 July 2022* | Motion Pictures & Film | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Reason has an amazing feature where you are able to flip the programs dash board as you would in real life, exposing all the wires and cables plugged into the back... Digitally\! It's a dream come true for aspiring sound engineers and once I learned enough of the program, I was thoroughly entertained and occupied for very long periods of time. Still to this day am I finding out new things on Reason. > > **Cons**: In the beginning it was very confusing and frustrating to learn and figure how to work the program. Because of Reason's level of detail, it tends to become daunting for a new user when first navigating the program. But, once you learn the basics. You're off and away, making your own perfectly managed composition and now you can actually complete a task that you failed to complete earlier. A little tedious at first but so rewarding if you have patience > > Honestly.... It's one of the most intricate and difficult music composition programs to learn and produce on. But reason gives the user tangible knowledge that they continue to utilize even when not using Reason. In my opinion, Reason is one of the most important programs to own if you are any type of sound engineer or producer. Maybe even the most important. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.in/software/1018292/reason?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.in/software/1018292/reason) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | it | | ----- ## Structured Data
