…then buy this NOW! If you know people (such as girlfriends) that like to see you from time to time, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! YOU WILL NOT LEAVE THE HOUSE. That is all.

Easy to set up and use. Ask Video has some great tutorials if you need some training. The sound is just awesome! No regrets!

I agree with the other positive reviews here…..RECORD is just fantastic. Rock solid stability and amazing sound quality combined with an intuitive workflow make this offering from Propellerhead an instant classic. There is absolutely no excuse for a Reason owner/user not to get this software. I have been using Logic for seven years, and it has been a great asset; however, I was torn on how to spend my hard earned money – (Logic 9 upgrade, or RECORD). REASON had lately been sitting unused on my hard drive, because it was taking too much time getting its devices to sound as good as the plugins included in Logic….as well as third party plugs. After trying the RECORD Demo I was so impressed with the functionality and sound of RECORD, I instantly purchased this product…..and now LOGIC is gathering virtual dust. I read people bemoaning the lack of VST support. Initially I thought this was a bad idea also…..but no more. By eliminating the possibility of 3rd party code (VSTs) being used inside RECORD, Propellerhead has ensured the program runs incredibly efficient and crash-free. How efficient? Well, any modestly spec’d computer will run it just fine…..throw it on a newer dual or quad-core CPU and the available power is unreal…..and for giggles I installed the RECORD demo on a Netbook (which falls far below the required specifications) and was able to open and play back the “Memphis Groove” demo song from the Propellerhead website (this is a 12 track (audio) recording with minimal other devices / processing). So now I can use the Netbook as a portable idea scratch pad when I am away from my main computer. Awesome. To make this review fair and balanced, there is ONE negative (IMO) to the program: No MIDI out. So…..using the RECORD sequencer to trigger external gear is not possible. You can still take the audio from these modules into the program….but in order to sequence you must have RECORD REWIRED to another host and use the host sequencer. For me, this is a non-issue since I have been 100% virtual on the synthesizer front for some years (and with the new sound engine and mixer, the Reason synths are on the same sound quality level as Logic plugins or high quality VST’s). So if you have read this far the only remaining question is……why haven’t you added it to your Amazon cart and bought the thing already? BTW, I recommend everyone interested in this program try it out and see if it fits their workflow / style ….the fully functioning demo is on the Propellerhead website (demo limitation is you cannot open saved songs).
