Great to Get Your Feet Wet, September 18, 2008

This is the perfect introductory book to Reason 4.0. This book will get you up and running with Reason 4.0 very quickly and is a great reference. I've never touched Reason before and this book made learning the software a breeze. My understanding about synthesis has increased exponentially. If Reason 4.0 is the first version of Reason you have ever used, I would highly recommend this book. If you have used previous versions of Reason then this book does cover the new features in 4.0 but most of it will be old news to you.

I am familiar with Reason from when I bought a Digidesign Pro Tools M-Box a few years ago which came bundled with Reason Adapted, which is like "Reason-Lite". I was always interested in using Reason but never got my head around it. I recently upgraded to Reason 4 and decided to buy this book. I'm glad I did. It's very thorough and easy to understand. The author is able to be very specific and technical and still make it easy to read.
I recommend the book.
Excellent guide to Reason, July 20, 2008

I bought this book as a completely new user to Reason. This book was very helpful in understanding the baiscs of Reason and how to use all the specific tools. However, this book goes into great detail about the more subtle aspects about Reason as well, so it is useful for advanced users also. The book is written well, so it is easy to follow. Highly recommended.
