When Reason first came out it was a music software revolution. Created by the Swedish group Propellerhead Software, it provides everything that music software are expected to have, such as the synthesizers, samplers, sequencers, mixers, effects, etc., but presents them in a brand new way and with superior quality.
The Reason software can be used as your own virtual music studio without having to sacrifice any main features that you might find in a brick and mortar studio. It can also be combined with other sequencing software in order to create your own unique sounds that can't be found elsewhere.
The first version of Reason, versions 1.0, was released back in the year 2000. It was well known for its ability to act as a studio rack, allowing users to insert their own virtual instruments, processors, and effects into the program.
Ever since that powerful debut, there have been four more versions, the latest being Reason 5.0 which was released late 2010. Of course, Reason 5.0 is overflowing with new features, such as the Kong Drum Designer, Dr. Octo Rex, Neptune Pitch Adjuster, and so much more! All these features come with cool sounding names too.
The Neptune pitch adjuster is one of the new effects available only in Reason 5.0, which allows you to auto tune the vocal track. It also contains a voice synthesizer by which you can create new harmonies using your vocal tracks and MIDI keyboard. This is a fitting addition to all the great quality effects of Reason such as the chorus, reverb, vocoder, etc.
The one down side to Reason 5.0 is that it cannot actually record audio, therefore disqualifying it from being a digital audio workstation. However, there are plenty of ways to get around this and to record your audio creations with just a few clicks of the mouse. You will also find that this software does not support third party plug ins which some people tend to criticize Reason for, but this lends itself to the reliable stability of the software.
For its price I guess it's one of the best buys, so long as you can swallow some of its quirks, like the lack of audio sampling support and third party plug-ins. If you can, then Reason 5.0 will definitely count as all you need to create the music of your dreams.
