You can open a Reason 1 project (20 years ago) in Reason 11. Not many DAWs can be credited with that accolade. I’m with Reason since Propellerhead Rebirth in 1998.
How I would love a Behringer hardware replica clone of this classic synth (20 years old) I’ve got the Deepmind 12 and is similar. Great if they could patch Deepmind effects in a Subtractor green module and synth option. 🪄👍✊
I still use reason subtractor today, I love its simplicity. It's like the Juno of the digital world and an absolute classic. However, don't be fooled by its simple appearance, the real monstrous power of this synth comes out when you start experimenting mapping and daisy chaining multiple subtractors together.
Been a user since v1!!! At 15 I had NO idea just how powerful and capable the subtractor was - partially because I was looking at it as a self contained instrument - discounting the fact that it could be stacked to form a more complex sound. Partially because for the longest time I didn't have a music keyboard, so I was poking around with the mouse. If I knew now what I do about synthesizers back then I'd have had a chance at making some amazing sounds. I've moved on to more expensive software and hardware since, but I always revisit the subtractor here and there. For the longest time I was considering moving back to Reason exclusively, bringing a few VSTs along. But then they did the opposite and made the rack available in any DAW - and now I'm enjoying the best of both worlds. The takeaway if you made it this far is the Subtractor is a powerful synth when used properly! You'd take hardware of this era seriously - take this bit of software seriously too!
Almost forgot how incredibly useful reason was. I used the subtractor and NN-XT almost on every track I made back in the early 2000's. They also barely seemed to use any system resources at a time when processing power and memory was still a limiting factor.
It's funny that we've come to the point where we can call a software synth "classic" now :). This one does sound fantastic though, seems very versatile to use.
xav, it's weird isn't it. reason and its predecessor rebirth were true pioneers of software instruments, the vsti spec only came out in 1999, whilst not a vst it was still groundbreaking at the time.
@@WoodyPianoShack What was great with Reason 1.0 when it came out in (late) 2000 was that it was really CPU-friendly. Cubase with it's vst-i standard couldn't handle anything near the number of instances of instruments and plug-ins as Reason was. It simply wasn't feasible to produce a selfcontained track of Synths and effects in Cubase only using software plug-ins. It was too demanding for the CPUs at the time. I mean, the demo songs that came with Reason were just full of instruments and effects in the racks and still only used a fraction of CPU resources on a bog standard Pentium 3 at the time. So Reason was several times easier on the CPU compared to Cubase. Reason was the first one to pull it off and that was due to great optimisation from the programmers making the "all in the box" possible for the first time. Sweden overall was one of the true pioneers when it came to Soft Synths/DAWS. We also had Clavia and which made the Nord Lead too, which also was kind of a "first" for virtual analogues.
The synth that taught me what was going on in the background of my ROMplers. I learned so much from this thing. Reason is great. I'd still be using it if it ran in Linux. Thanks Woody!
Thanks Woody. I've been a Reason user since 6.5 when their Rack Extensions started. I love the paradigm of rack/mixer/sequencer. May be it's my age because it mimics a real studio. Routing the virtual cables is half the fun. I agree about the size of devices. In the Reason community we have been nagging them for years to make it resizeable. My old eyes have a bit of trouble these days. Please create more vids.
I recently got the Reason VST-PlugIn and I was really suprised of the Subtractor! I love this raw, aggressive sound. Really useful even 20 years later!
Subtractor has always been the best sounding softsynth to my ears. From day one, I got amazingly warm sounds from it. Reason's effects were/are top notch as well (Subtractor + flanger is an amazing sounding combination). My only gripe with Subtractor was that it skipped too many increments when changing parameters.
Love Subtractor synth. Stick it in a combinator and throw in some FX. Easiest way to design your own sounds. Great idea delving into the Reason universe of underrated synths 👍🎹🎹🎹
@@annother3350 No, on the front of Subtractor, where the screw graphic is, you could click and hold your mouse pointer on the screw and move the mouse to unscrew it, and vice versa. Haven't used Reason since release 4, not sure if its still a feature?
I remember not knowing what Reason was around 2007 and my friend showed me. I didn't really like the UI of the daw bc I was too used to my own but I remember being really into the synth sounds from Subtractor and Thor, I think it was called? Lots of personality and versatile
20 year old hardware synths sound amazing today so its really just a testament to an expert conceived synth. I give 'reason studios' a lot of crap for their lack of growth for long time users, but they really know how to make soft synths. Thor. Europa. Malstrom. Subtractor. Grain. The Combinator makes the possibilities even more endless.
Actually the Reason team is working on it currently, they put some hints of this in a goodie pack they shared on their website for the 20th anniversary of Reason a few days ago :)
I rediscovered Reason, which was dusty lost on HD, and I am using it in Rewire mode with Reaper again. This is a great total integration rack and good as every VST!
I still have my reason 1 CD. Reason was the first piece of commercial software I ever brought. I tried demo versions of more advanced DAW's at the time but they were just too much. Reason was the missing ingredient. I loved the fact it was self contained and limited to itself. Those limitations sparked creativity. It had just enough synths to make professional songs. I used to make songs and release them on vinyl through a distribution company, all done solely with reason. It more than paid for itself! Ah such simple times, when all you needed was a Subtractor, a redrum and an NN19!
Fully agree. Still use it plenty, and it's usually easier with Subtractor to just whip up whatever basic synthy sound I need at the moment over trying to dig through a massive list of my own patches or even presets. Extremely low CPU impact, even in a combinator with multiple instances. I just commented in my last video/song production that it was amazing Subtractor was 20 years old and still getting used so much (by me at least).
Reason was the first DAW I had. Trying to remember why I gave up on it... it was before I went Linux so it can't have been OS. I had no idea the synth was so good- I may've stayed with Reason longer if I'd known.
Years ago I came to the conclusion that the sound quality wasnt as good as other synths and VSTs I had but this Subtractor demonstration makes it sound perfectly useable, warm and fat
I love Reason as my DAW! While I love using flashy, new VSTs and hardware in it, it's always nice to go back to the "classics". Ableton and FL Studio just aren't as fun to me.
Fun video. I get a very Waldorf Orange vibe from Subtractor. Somewhat thin and digital. I bought Reason at its release and was blown away by how fun and immediate it was to play with, esp compared to 'turn of the century' Logic
It's nice to see you using Reason and giving an in-depth walkthrough. I recently installed the Ableton Live 10 90 day free trial and I must say I am impressed. Yes I know they can both do the same thing, help you to produce music but the tuition on RUclips available for Ableton far outweighs what I can find for Reason?? In particular EDM Tips has 'taught' me loads about Ableton, I wish there was this the case for Reason tutorials unless you know of any?? Keep making these lovely synth videos!!!
@@WoodyPianoShack If you find some really good ones please let me know. Like I said above Will Darling's Ableton Tutorials are so helpful to a noob or returning user. That's what i need for Reason.
That's a cool track you created in the end of that video. Plugin sounds great. The interface looks quite nice, which is the most surprising thing for me (20 years old software tends to look really dated).

hi floyd, i'm sure it's received a few updates over the decades, but in desparate need of a new UI now that people have high-res retina screens etc. i read in the forums that it's in the pipeline...
Synthetic_Future I own a Nord 2x and I love it. I also know the value of software. If it can generate a tone, it's a beautiful thing in the right hands, regardless of the tech :)
“The first Nord Lead was released in 1995 to positive reviews. It was created with the help of Peter Jubel, who also co-founded Propellerhead Software.” Jubel is also developed the Subtractor and many more FX and synths in Reason.
Checked out this software after a 20 year gap after buying the original rebirth in 1999? and cant believe how tiny the synth interfaces are they are absolutely miniscule even on my decade old 1080p monitor. You would think 20 years was enough time for them to build a scalable interface. I'll check them out again in 2040 hopefully they will have sorted the problem by then.
There is some magic to the vintage (soft) synths, they don´t sound quite the same anymore, it is making me really sad, and willing to pay 10x the price for reason 11

i like using just the reason devices for the tighter integration with the sequencer, and there isn't much of a shortage
Im a reason user since mid 2012 and can say that is a very underrated piece of software...
The subtractor and dr Rex are my favorite reason devices even Now. Other reason devices haven’t aged so well

Its all nice and shit but I cant imagine i'd use any of these patches in any song
at the end of the day, it's all sawtooths :D
Everybody loves Pulverizer but i think it sounds kind of aweful
Really painful this video to listen to, too much unnecessary verbiage
i'll let the other guys make the "all playing" demos :)
