Over 20 years of sound design for you to use and abuse. Anything that isn’t already tagged by us can of course be tagged by you.

Sequencer upgrade

The sequencer has been split into two. With the new Edit Area it’s easy to get down and dirty with the details in your music without losing your way in the arrangement. Together with several new workflow improvements, improved zooming, layout changes, and easy access to editing features—the upgraded sequencer makes it effortless to make your music sound like you.

It’s got the look

Reason 13 doesn’t just sound good, it also looks good. Together with the sequencer the entire Reason interface has been updated. It might not necessarily improve your music, but it will make it easier to find your way around.

POLYTONE DUAL‑LAYER SYNTHESIZER

Polytone is a synth-lovers’ synth. Inspired by our favorite vintage hardware, we designed it to recreate the warm analog sounds you know and love. But it wouldn’t be us if we didn’t tweak the formula for more possibilities. Even better, Polytone has two layers that can be stacked or morphed between for super fat or evolving sounds.

Polytone is more than just a replica of the past. It’s a loving tribute.

RIPLEY SPACE DELAY

Ripley combines delay and reverb with unique flavors of filtering, noise, and distortion. Coupled with extensive modulation you can create the delay you want—anything from clean taps or warm analog sounds to crazy lo-fi chirps or washed out ambiences. Everything that adds character and depth to your music.

REASON TOOLS

Three new devices that simplify common tasks for a smoother workflow, so that you spend less time on the boring stuff and more time making music

Sidechain Tool is all about ducking signals. Use Auto Pump for that classic four-on-the-floor pumping, Trigger to play the rhythm via MIDI, or the traditional Sidechain mode for classic sidechain compression.

Gain Tool puts you in control over signal levels, stereo panning, and routing in one sleek package. Perfect for automation, auditioning, or using in a Combinator.

Stereo Tool is a stereo widener specifically designed to make a simple signal sound bigger and wider. Perfect for giving that old mono synth or vocal track new life.
