What's new in Reason 5?

Are you a Reason user, but have found it lacking slightly in some areas?   Well chances are in this update to Reason and Record (the audio recording software that integrates with Reason), Propellerheads will have answered your prayers...

1. Ke$ha will be happy...

With the new Neptune Pitch Adjuster and Voice Synth Device in Record, you get
a high-quality processor to correct and shift pitches, create backing harmonies, formant shift and vocode the hell out of your voice.

This addresses the issue that most Record users had that Autotune was an industry standard plug-in.   Now there's no issue any more and you can T-Pain away to your heart's content! (Or use it subtly, your call.)


2. The King of Drum emulation...

The Kong Drum Designer in Reason allows you to build and tweak your sounds with your choice of drum synthesis, sampling, REX loops, physical modeling and effects modules for percussion on Kong's 16 MPC-esque pads.

Basically now you're not restricted to samples for percussion - Kong makes it a million times easier to create your own sounds from scratch.




3. Goodbye, Copy and Paste!

Sick of wearing out your Ctrl (command on a mac), V and C keys?   Block-based pattern sequencing mode solves that problem with easily alterable patterns that are dynamically linked to each other!

Brilliant for Hip Hop producers especially.   There's another great feature for authentic Hip Hop producers too...


4. Sampling + Wave Editing

Live sampling is in Reason!   Finally, there's a way to get the real world into the virtual rack without a million steps in between!

So now you can be more creative, start diggin' in the crates and get your tracks poppin' ol' schoo' style!   Okay, I'll quit with the apostrophes and get on with telling you about...


5. Doc Oc?

But it's not all about your own samples.   You can load up more of your favourite loops since Dr.REX octuples into DrOctoRex Loop Player in Reason - this actually has more options than you'd initially think as well, since not only are 8 loops available, effects, audio processing and slice-specific parameter adjustment make it a completely different animal.


An Octopus, to be specific.

So get excited - Reason 5 is going to be a BIG step forward for Propellerhead fans.
