Groove3 Working with VSTs in Reason [TUTORiAL]

Studio guru Paul Ortiz brings you an in-depth look at using VST plug-ins inside Reason 9.5 or higher. See everything you need to know, plus cool tips and tricks that will make using VST plug-ins even better, now that you can use them in Reason.

Paul starts with the basics, such as how to add and access your VST plug-ins on your computer and Reason, and then how to call them up inside Reason and load them into a Rack.

Next, you’ll explore using VSTs in Reason as Insert and Send FX, including Macro Programming, Automating Parameters and Configuring VSTs as a Multi-Out device.

You’ll then get a crash course on using Control Voltage or CV within Reason to control your VST plug-ins, and more advanced ideas such as how to use Reason's flexible audio routing to create a Side Chaining Effect.

Then you’ll discover cool ways to use Reason’s Combinator device to create everything from simple layered sounds to key splits, to full melody sections that you can arrange on the fly with your control surface.

Wrapping it up, you’ll see how to build a drum machine out of DUNE 2, as well as how to construct a four voice poly-synth where every voice is an individual Serum patch!
