The fun DAW

As a long time Cubase/Nuendo user, I've always heard good things about how fun Reason is to use and finally decided to pick up a copy when it happened to be on sale. Fun is exactly the right way to describe Reason. The interface is fun, the rack is fun, even the mixer is fun. Everything about the software is fun, and the included instruments are generally speaking of good quality as well. It certainly pales in comparison to Cubase when it comes to features and the overall workflow, but at the same time as long as you approach it more like an instrument it doesn't really feel like it needs more stuff. Integrating the rack as a VST inside Cubase was also a great way to get some older projects moving forwards, so definitely a solid recommendation from me.

Mir gefaellt's

Per-Note Pitch statt Pitchbend haette ich noch nett gefunden, und Werte per Tastatur in Mixerknoepfe eingeben koennen waere deutlich einfacher handzuhaben.

Was ich gut finde: Mir begegnen keine Bugs bei Reason. In diversen schmoddergrauen anderen DAWs jagt ein Kaefer den anderen, aber in Reason funktioniert alles ein kleines bisschen altertuemlich und stabil. Perfekt.
