Why did you guys start using reason? I mean you didn't wake up one day and was like " I'm going to start using Reason " So how did you start using it?

I started when i was looking for a program that makes background music for my brother. He wanted me to find a program to make some tricked out mucsic for his album. ( that never happened ) He's still working on it I guess but i made thirteen background music for him so i don't know what he's doing.

So why did you start using Reason?

I started using it because a few of my friends were into producing trance music and also started using it

I stared with Ejay, then moved to Fruity Loops, then Ableton Live... and i thought id try reason, so i downloaded a demo.

It was like nothing ive ever seen... i mean, i thought Live was the best thing in music production, but when i saw reason i was like whooa.. blown away... it gives you the power to control every sound in it... its unbelivable.. then, i bought it

I started using reason because i got asked if i ever though about making music cos i was really into music, i got offered to go on a course regarding it too, so i got the software went on the course and i must admit i love it

I used to use Acid pro and I made some whack ass sh!t lol (not trying to bash acid though). So I looked up other means of making music when I stumbled across posts of people using reason, downloaded the demo and I loved it.

Used flstudio for (almost) ten years. Bought Reason 4 when it came out because I loved how modular it is compared to FL. Began rewiring the two, but then found 80/90% of the sounds I was using were in Reason, and switching between the two was a pain in the ass so I just decided to work strictly in Reason.

Not to mention I like the work flow SO much more in Reason, a completely subjective opinion of course lol

I have my half-brother to thank, he installed Reason on my PC and even gave me a keyboard!

At this recording studio I used to work at some guys hooked me up with reason 1.0, I've been upgrading and digging it ever since.

I went through an agonizing search for a software sequencer, after trying the VSTi route of making music for a while. I wound up using FL Studio, but found it way too cumbersome to use as a sequencer, so I tried Reason 3.0 and found it was the perfect match for me.

started with Cakewalk using an XG Midi sound card, and was messing with FL (didn't like it), then came Rebirth , knew then that Propellerhead would follow up with something like Reason
