Reason video: programming beats in Redrum
A beginner's guide to Reason's drum module
When you fire up Reason for the first time, the chances are that Redrum will be the device that you want to use before any other. This is designed to look and operate like a classic hardware drum machine, and because it has its own built-in pattern sequencer, it enables you to create grooves very quickly.
In this short video we'll show you how to build your first pattern, teaching you how to select and trigger different sounds along the way. If you've never used Reason before, it's the perfect introduction.
