Guest BrainStorm Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 hey I am from israhell, im making progressive psytrance music with REASON software and i use NO other software/hardware most of the ppl say - you need cubase, vsti, other stuff to produce anything nice.. i am not agree. Nothing you need else, but Reason - u dont believe? try my tracks.. see what reason is able to produce. band: BrainStorm http://www.mp3.com/whoracle try first 9 tracks on that page (album "Anything Is Nothing 2003"), the tracks come in actual cd order.. just push "hi-fi play" and E.N.J.O.Y before u listen, notice: 1) EVERYthing in EVERY track was mastered on purpose, nothing is random 2) i use NO LOOPS and no foreign material (besides really few guitar things) 3) this music isnt repetitive and very complex (20+ synth lines in every track)..... you need to get a few listens to understand what's going on and why some passages and effects doesnt seem to be in the right place, when u listen to it for the first time 4) the quality is still not that commercial, but im very close to the sound i always dreamed of.. i got no studio, its all software-made besides 128kbps mp3s cant really handle this sound nice, actual cd got much more clear, rich and sharp sound best luck to all with everything let me know what you think !!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest psy-fi Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 hmm, i dont know if i got the right track. i couldn´t open the "anything is nothing" link, so i opend a track below named "anything is nothing" it got guitars in the beginning...and as far as i know you cant "play" guitar in reason, unless you got it sampled, and if you use samples from other things i guess you could make some pro stuff with it. and how do you work the 303?, i dont recognise the reason sound at all. maybe i got the wrong track i dont know. but if i did got the right track and you made this with reason i must say that im impressed. I would never have guessed it was made just with reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BrainStorm Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 there no wrong tracks mate first nine (9) tracks on that page were done with reason only guitars are surely played through the sampler, few fx are also samples - all the rest, including 303s, novas, korgs, drums and any other synths u hear inside any track were done with reason's subtraktor or malmstorm thanks for nice words, it matters u know BrainStorm http://www.mp3.com/whoracle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eXpulse Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 sounds wierd..... i didn't like it....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Woggz Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 not very good ) with all the talk of it up...i'm really upset by the quality...eh : ) the synth sounds aren't that great. the whole track sounds like it should be on hypnotic records if you took out some parts. not to be hurtful but don't hype yerself up if your'e not up there yet ;o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest woggz Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 i think the main reason is because the synth sounds don't fit. they're not very good synth sounds : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest woggz Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 oh yea also check Instruments TS404, TB303, TR909, Roland Juno, Yamaha, SuperNova, Akai, Kawai, Korg... too much to define all of them here heheh...so yo udon't exactly only use reason u gotta get a better mixing board. some sounds are nice but they don't mix well...need eqing...

Guest BrainStorm Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 check what i wrote in the same thread at MAIN BOARD of this forum.. the tracks you have heard on my page is just a low quality demos =) still THANKS for all who posted feedbacks, thanks for your time BrainStorm http://www.mp3.com/whoracle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blink Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 listened to the track "Smell The Color". your levels are way off on your mixer man. your highs should be brought down a bit, and the kick you are using are pretty soft. the composition isn't very coherhrent, although the sound choice is intersting. i used reason for quite a while myself. you might want to try making a simpler more straight forward track, and use the compressor alot more in your parts. not just connected to the mixer, but chained from each device that is too full in sound. if you would like to hear a sample of what i did, go to my website www.organicparadox.com and download grimmel. hate to say it, but i like reason and all, but i switched to cubase and i am so glad i did. the sound quality in reason's rendering engine sucks all by itself.

Guest BrainStorm Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 @BLINK firstly really big thanks for the feedback, just i think you didnt notice one of my posts for this thread where i said the tracks i posted are demo only with low quality actual sound is way different from those mp3s, all the frequences are ok, believe me thanks for advices about removing some stuff but im not gonna do that, man.. as i posted before - im not interested to make music by someones advices, so i'll get to the common trancy sound which im really trying to avoid second - i've heard ur grimmel track well, its not my style, to say the truth i dont think i'll listen your track again but i must admit - nice quality and.. well its "empty" for me, although you got there few nice synth sounds which i liked. yet im not agree with you about Reason. This piece of software is able to produce very high and sharp sound, even if you got no expensive sound card.

Guest blink Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 well good luck man. i've finally got some great monitor speakers and i promise, if you don't at least route your tracks through cubase or some other program, your music will sound like shit when playing over loud speakers. i hate to bash reason because i do love that prog, but that track grimmel did nothing but show me the limitations of reason. if you mixdown, compare it to cubase sx, and you will hear the difference. sorry to come down so hard on your tracks earlier. they are yours and you should be proud. most people can't even make a full track....... good luck, blink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
