Rewatching due to 1.1 release--great video. One workflow issue I'm dealing with is whether it's better to record into DAW or Sequencer. Hope you review 1.1!

@Jef great to hear from you again. Would be interesting if you'd review the #Scaler2 plugin.

Congrats on your recovery. Great looking software. I tried to buy it. I was told you have to buy their Reason software for $499 in order to use Chord Sequencer.

To buy full licence for Reason is $499 Cord sequencer is not included its $50 or Reason Plus for $20 a month access to use all of there devices and DAW while you pay plus sound packs which include patches, preset and audio samples 2 new packs per week. Or buy Reason 11 lite licence for about $20 off of Ebay them buy cord sequencer.

Hi Jef, 'Really appreciate your work! I was wondering if you could offer a couple of pointers on getting my Maschine MK3 to trigger the Reason Chord Sequencer. I at least got it to trigger, but it only seem to play the root note, not the chord...What am I missing? Thanks for all you share with the music community.

Your Glasses remind me of Plastic Man from the 80's. Thanks for the great vid.

In the Reason DAW you can send that midi straight to track.. Cant do that with the rank in 3rd party DAWs, can record the midi of course and you can automate the pattern select..

Hi! Is there a way to buy and use this player without having reason?

Just purchased it. On sale right now for 35 bucks

I got some serious Mr Rogers vibes when you were playing a chord then pausing to talk then playing another then pausing to talk

You can load VST3 into a DAW that dont support VST3 by using a 3rd party VST loader of which there are several which I wont but if you really want it then it can be done.

what could be very nice is the chord named traduce in european french version cause it is hard for us to understand US version of note :)

Gotta update that player.. its soooooo much better now!!!

NICE! I'll check it out!

Also, i would like @Reason Studios to include the ability to detach the piano roll from the sequencer and make it possible for it to have its own full screen view like the mixer or the rack view. The piano roll is small, the zoom functions are limited, and i can't get it to resize. It's stuck in the bottom right side of the sequencer. I would like it to be larger, be resizable, have ghost notes from other midi channels... as well as show the key names on the left side of the piano roll. Like C1,A flat, etc. And i would like them to make the notes that you can draw larger. They are tiny. I would like them to make it easy for an old man with bad eyes to make a beat... lol. That product would rival FL Studios piano roll... and maybe the new Ableton piano roll upgrades. What do you think? Will @Reason Studios make those upgrades and changes before the next update?

@jefgibbons How much pull do you have over there @Reason Studios ?...lol.I'm not trying to make you or anyone else mad. I'm just trying to get more functionality in the program. I like using it. I used it for a very long time. I'm relearning it right now, but I like how ready it is to get working on a project and get inspired. I'll be honest, for the last week it takes an insane amount of time for the application to start. It has been sitting on the orange opening screen before it scans for plugins etc for an hour or more. On Friday I tried to open Reason, it took so long that I opened Fl Studio and made a beat before Reason Studios loaded up, and when it did I naively made the same beat over again in Reason. I don't like using Fl Studio but it loads quicker, the piano roll is better, etc. I'm trying to figure a workflow out that's gonna work well with me for the long haul. The Fl Studio content creators are making better music as a group. I think they have a very aggressive mix on their drums, they have learned how to use their soft clipper to bring up the loudness in their mixes, and now they have a chord generator. But I still want Reason Studios to win. Well I need to start using Studio One or another professional daw to start doing professional projects in the future? Does Studio One Artist edition have the capacity to operate to a Pro tools or Cubase professional level capacity from best making to fill song production? I'm sorry about the mini novel I wrote you... lol. I do respect your opinion.i think you're a good guy. And I appreciate your videos. But I can't buy any more software packages until I start making music money or win the lottery... lol. I can't buy everything my brother. Lol... have a good day. Thank you.

Hi Jef. How are you?I have reason. I am new to scales&chords. I recently bought scaler 2,I haven't started using it yet, so I don't know how to use it. Should I have bought cord sequencer instead? For someone that doesn't play keys very well, what is the best way to make Professional level music? How do I navigate that process and quantum leap in by productions?

Honestly the best thing you could do is find some good music theory basics videos, study those, and start practicing your scales on the keyboard. Enrolling in a music basics course would keep you even more accountable. But mostly force yourself to work on it every day, even if it’s just a few minutes!
