Propellerhead Reason 5 is a complete music creation environment, far more than a virtual instrument or even a collection of virtual instruments. Reason 5 has all of the effects, signal processors, and complex routing options of a full-fledged DAW, yet its environment is intuitive enough that you don't have to be a programmer to get great results. Amazing new features in version 5, including the jaw-dropping Kong Drum Designer, the super-flexible Dr. OctoRex loop player, in-device live sampling, and the innovative Blocks song-development mode make Reason more powerful than ever before. From its simplest subtractive synthesizer "Subtractor" to its complex "Thor" modular synthesizer, Reason 5's functionality will inspire you. Its analog-style virtual-rack environment is incredibly intuitive, and its flexible routing and automation options are nearly limitless. Whether you're scoring films or making beats, Reason 5 is your ticket to making great music.

As for Reason 5, its completely intuitive design makes its user interfce powerful. A control section with all of the main transport controls and sequencer tracks, and the virtual rack are two parts to Reason 5's environment. It's simple and traightforward to navigate the control section, but the astonishing aspect of Reason 5's design is the virtual rack. Reason 5's rack appears to be an endless virtual 19" equipment rack, into which you load its devices. With the push of a button, you can flip the rack around and access these units' cables. The cables are color coded to keep them separate, and by simply dragging-and-dropping from one unit's output to another's input, you can rout Reason 5's signal paths.
