Propellerhead Reason 2.5 Software Synthesizers Samplers Drum Machines and Mixing
Four Brand New Sound Processing Tools and Two Utilities for Signal Path Routing
Propellerhead Software, the Swedish company behind acclaimed products such as Reason, ReCycle! and ReBirth, announced Reason 2.5-an upgrade to its flagship music software program.
Reason is an enormously successful software title for both Windows and Mac OS platforms that emulates a rack of electronic synthesizers, samplers, drum machines and mixing equipment. Reason has been awarded Editor's Choice Awards from Electronic Musician, MacWorld, Remix, Computer Music magazines, cnet.com, the mipa award for Best Software Instrument and the highly coveted TEC award.
New Features in Reason 2.5 include:
RV7000 Advanced Reverb
The RV7000 is a stereo effect module dedicated to high-quality reverberation with a quality rivaling the best hard- and software solutions on the market today. The reverb engine consists of nine carefully crafted algorithms: Small Space, Room, Hall, Arena, Plate, Spring, Echo, Multitap and Reverse, with up to seven individual parameters each. In addition to the reverb section, the RV7000 also includes an EQ and a gate section. The EQ section features a handy parametric eq and a low shelving filter for additional tweaking of the reverb signal. The Gate section can be applied to any reverb algorithm and can be triggered with CV or MIDI.
BV512 Digital Vocoder
The BV512 Digital Vocoder is a 4 to 512 band vocoder capable of modulating sounds both in an old-school analog style and in a digital FFT fashion, with totally outstanding quality and character. As a bonus, it also serves as a fully automated graphic equalizer. A vocoder takes two input signals, the carrier, which provides the pitch, and the modulator, supplying the characteristics. This type of device is usually seen as a tool to create robotic voice effects, but with Reason's endless patching capabilities, you can combine any two sound sources. For example, vocoding a percussion track with the bass line or the string pad with the rhythm guitar.
Scream 4 Sound Destruction Unit
The Scream 4 Sound is a distortion unit with 10 different damage types -Overdrive, Distortion, Fuzz, Tube, Tape, Feedback, Modulate, Warp, Digital and Scream. In addition to the distortion section, Scream 4 also incorporates a +/- 18dB three band equalizer and the unique Body Section, which is similar to a speaker simulator. There are five basic Body types to select from -each with it's own vibe - as well as separate controls for Body Resonance and Body Scale. The Auto function is an amplitude respondent envelope follower that controls the scale parameter, creating unique dynamic effect.
UN-16 Unison
The UN-16 Unison is a reincarnation of the mysterious "Unison' button found on early '80's synths. Transformed into a Reason half-rack unit, it fattens up incoming audio by emulating the effect of 4, 8, or 16 detuned voices playing the same sound. The result is rich and wide, slightly similar to a chorus effect, but more complex.
Spider Audio
The Spider Audio is a utility that merges and splits audio, bringing even more of the hardware studio's patching capabilities into the software realm. Multiple audio signals can be merged and processed with the same insert effect or an instrument's output can be split into four and sent to four different effect processors.
Spider CV
The Spider CV is the same as Spider Audio except that the splitting and merging is performed on CV and gate signals. The merge function comes with individual attenuators for each input and the split function also inverts one of the CV outputs. This opens up for advanced and flexible modulation and control routing.
Pricing and availability: Reason 2.5 will be available during the second quarter 2003. Reason 2.0 registered users will get the 2.5 update for free.
