Propellerhead Record Reason Duo Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just received my order and was completely shocked to discover the older release (4 and 1.0) in the box. There is no release information on the item description on the Amazon site, and none on the retail box regarding software release information. Looking at the Propellerhead website, it seems a new package design is being used, however another website is still using the old graphics and describing the new software (however they confirmed it to be the latest 5.0+1.5 Duo on the phone). This is very confusing and I suggested to Amazon to add a version number to this item. I'm going straight to Propellerhead for my order, $50 more and worth every penny.
Amazon is providing me with a full refund instead of sending a replacement, because they can not verify the release number.

Stanton Record Cleaner Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I still maintain a sizable vinyl collection, drawing from it each week for a radio show (I doubt the majority of stations in the country even bother to keep a working turntable). The old Discwasher, now simply a name sold to Phillips Electronics (RCA, General Electric), impresses me less these days than this Stanton brush. Unlike the corduroy material of the Discwasher, it has a felt-like material that appears to penetrate the grooves and pull out more dust than a stiff corduroy wipe. I don't buy, however, the claims either manufacturer makes about "special formulas." When the bottle of liquid runs out, it's silly to purchase another 25 dollar kit. Simply refill it with a 50/50 mix of water and isopropyl alcohol and expect the same results.

Propellerhead Record (for Reason Owners) Software Recording Studio for Musicians Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is perhaps the easiest decision for someone to make - would a Reason users like to be able to record audio in conjunction with Reason? Look no further.
As a stand-alone audio recording application, Record is at the top of the line for functionality, ease of use and sound. Using the same beautiful, intuitive old-school interface structure as Reason, Record is ready to use immediately after installation. Anyone who is familiar with recording on any multi-track device will find this application a pleasure to use and immensely productive. Along with multi-track recording, limited only by your computer's processing power, Record has a standard complement of audio editing tools for splicing multiple takes of any track into an ideal master. It's also excellent for mixing and remixing, with an exceptional mixer interface model after classic SSL boards, complete with built in EQ and compression and elegant effects in-out connections. Although Record has no sound modules other than an extremely basic sketch unit, it does offer the full set of effects devices.
But the details don't matter so much as whether Reason users would like to record in their application. If you have Reason, and install Record, they are immediately and completely integrated. You cannot run both simultaneously - Reason prevents Record from launching. This is not a problem of any kind, however, as launching Record makes the full set of Reason devices available to be put into a rack, just like in Reason. In fact, using Record is identical to using Reason, with the addition that you now have full audio capability. The beta-test version of this application was 99% stable and bug-free, so buy, load and launch with confidence. Absolutely beautiful, a stunning example of good design and functionality. Highest recommendation
