Cheers squire,very clear and concise.really appreciated.I recently went from Reason 4 to 12!oh yes,very very good&well worth it.keep them coming sir.if you have time,I'm Tonescapes on Soundcloud &would always be up for better production techniques

Wow this is damn awesome. Mixing was always my downfall but visual learning like this really helps.

Very useful and interesting tutorials. You helped me solve a ton of issues. Thank you and keep it up.

yo man this is exactly the explanation i needed i usually did everything directly from the rack and never used the send fx this is gonna help my work flow so much. thanks again.

I love the ssl mixer....man keep this tutorials coming thanks a lot

Late to the party, but these tutorials are great! Thanks a million!

Friday is here and it's a long one but it goes by real quick! FX Sends & Returns and what you can do with them is pretty cool. Plus a sample of what Gain Staging can do for you at the end. Share it!

Another great video. Thank you Matt

Thank you for such a great explanation

Hi Matt, yet another extremely helpful video.. thank you so much :)

Best tutorial ever, the more I see your videos, the more I want to buy Reason

This is one of the most helpful reason videos I've seen. Reason is the best hands down!

Great Video, love your tips

Thank you! Finally I got clear explanation.

i NEEEDED this lesson. SUBBED!

Love all these videos. Super useful!

Very cool tutorial - thank you

Most helpful, thank you kindly!

Best tutorial ever

Hmmmm fazer one side and LFO on the other side, great way to widen the sound.

Great job

Thanks Mate very informative:

Those drums sound like the drums From ELO "Don't Bring Me Down." 😊😁

Great Great Learning you sound like George Cloony! That is even cooler

Great explanation of PRE = without fader, PRE OFF = with fader. Never thought of it like that! Btw, you sound nothing like "George Cloony"... guy who said that below might not have proper room treatment!

Great tutorials, thank you very much. One question: is there a disadvantage to route sends back to 'normal' mix channels?

"The googles....and the....twitters!" That really got me haha... great video, very informative and concise. I do have a question, though. I've recently encountered the dreaded (Computer is too slow to play... ) error message, and I realize that I may be using a bit more processing power than necessary when adding plugins to my tracks. I recently noticed that there are parametric and fixed EQ enables on each of the tracks, as well as right there underneath the MAIN volume fader on the mixer. When these are activated, I presume they use up more processing power than if they were disabled, but I'm wondering by how much if at all. I've always used the mastering suite FX / utilities in individual tracks FX inserts (unless there was a way I could bus the tracks to one device). Now that I see that these exist (I'm blind lol), I feel like I could negate the use of the EQs in the mastering suite (or Synapse EQ which I purchased recently) and possibly save processing power and memory. Would using these EQ's be the less CPU / RAM intensive option? Sorry for the long-winded question, but I'm trying to save money on buying better computer components, by being more efficient in my recording / mixing process. Thank you again for the videos, I can't wait to watch the rest! EDIT: I meant the Parametric EQ enables, but I guess we could throw in the fixed EQ's as well!

So I'm new to Reason and have been told I should use send effects when dealing with effects such as delay and reverb opposed to inserting the effect. I've watching a couple different videos so far, my question is what's the difference in using the ssl mixer vs. 14:2? Are there any pros or cons? Thanks

HI, really great tutorial, thank you. So is the difference of using fx send and return opposed to just directly adding an effect to an audio lane in the rack the greater variability (like eg panning the effect to a different side than the main signal)? Or did i get that wrong?

thanks Matt, your Video really enlightened me (again). :) But when I used your "Gain staging"-Method in a song I had a problem. I usually turn the volume up to 0 db in Reason´s channel mixer. Now I turned it down via the "Gain"-Knob to -10 and now it misses some dynamics. The synth-pad for example seems to sound really flat now. I hope you understand my problem.

Great tutorial... I have one problem: I have Reason 10 and on my SSL Control Room section... I don't have the FX SEND, FX RETURN OR THE 8 SEND SELECT BUTTONS... I don't understand why mine is different. PLEASE HELP !!!

Is there a way to give a good tip for automate audio FX i.e. delay feedback, filtering etc etc. I see it's easy with midi tracks, but let's say i want to apply a delay on the last note of a vocal audio track automating it (?) Also, would it be more helpful to create bus & aux fx for more control? Any tutorial that can show how this is done ? Thank U!

If Reason can use CV to control fx send level will get more fun, I will route LFO to it and create very random sound.

Hey genuis, can you make a tutorial on how to use tempo, metronom et quantify please? Thanks for your helpfull videos!

how would i go about putting a low pass filter on the whole mix and modulating it in and out, would that be done in this section or?

04:52 - Has this Ctrl room source been removed in R11? I don't see those buttons.

Great video. Although I am confused as hell with Reason. Lol

Hi Matt, is there a post pan EFX? Like in LogicX, u have , pre fad, post fad, and post pan

those fx send and fx return buttons under the control room out section are missing in reason 10 or have been moved. Do you know where they are located now?

if you made Russian subtrites to this video, then Russian-speaking users of Reason would be immensely grateful to you)

Stumped: When I try to isolate the FX Send and the FX Ret in the Fader Control Room, nothing happens. I've made sure that that the little blue light is lit next to the appropriate channel, that I've selected the instrument in the sequencer, and still nothing changes. Reverb is definitely on the sound, but clicking FX Send doesn't isolate the dry sound, and FX Ret doesn't isolate the reverb. Any ideas?

How do I insert reverb in the fx send
