Reason Essentials 2 packs in all the recording, editing, effects, instruments, mixing and mastering tools you need to sound great in a streamlined package.
Just like its bigger brother, Reason Essentials puts making music in focus. From concept to completion, it comes with all the essential tools for turning good ideas into great songs.
Reason Essentials comes with a great selection of instruments and effects in a virtual rack that builds itself, or can be tweaked to your heart’s content—drum machine, loop player, sampler, synths, reverb, delay, distortion and more. For guitar players, the built-in virtual guitar POD® and bass POD® from Line 6 bring a wide range of top quality guitar amps, cabinets and effects. The intuitive audio and MIDI sequencer makes recording and arranging your music a breeze.
With its generous sound bank and familiar creative flow, Reason Essentials has all the sounds and patches to let you focus on the music and finish that song faster and sounding better.
Reason Essentials 2 adds the same slice editing of audio as in Reason 7. Other enhancements include mixing controls in the rack, support for importing more audio file formats and an expanded soundbank.
