Halo. Found your video very helpful, thank you. But, i got one problem with the Send FX in Reason. So usually when i bounce a Clip with the Send FX On, the FX is already printed directly in the bounced the clip. But i think i messed something up in the Setting, because now when i bounce a Clip, it juts copied the Send FX setting from the source Clip. It only bounce the raw source clip. Hope you can help me with this. Thanks in advance.

@StockMusicMusician I'm trying this now, and love that it works...but I'm getting a weird slap delay. Do you get this as well?

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

Interesting.

[@timmiethedog]

Thanks for another really informative video Evan. On a different channel they advocate connecting the Return Out to the FX Return on the Master Section which re-populates the FX Return controls on the mixer. Is there any benefit to be gained by so doing please?

[@StockMusicMusician]

Hi Tim! Towards the end of the video in get into that a bit, but advantage of that would be that it works more smoothly with solo/mute. The disadvantage is that you can’t have a bus with all your send effects.

[@ragingoracle6239]

Are the native send channels processed in order, i.e. 1 happens before 2 happens then 3 happens to the signal that has 1 and 2 on it etc?

[@StockMusicMusician]

It should all happen simultaneously with delay compression turned on (which is how I recommend mixing). So if you send a guitar to delay on insert 2 and then send the delay to insert 3, your returns should be a delayed guitar (2) and a delayed+reverb guitar (3). All should be in phase/synced. You can check the manual for what happens otherwise.

[@chocomalk]

Just an FYI this will introduce some latency if you are using a higher buffer setting as Reason will not accommodate the latency with delay compensation. It wont affect the final product but may make syncing a pain.

[@StockMusicMusician]

Thanks for the heads up!

Nice to see the family Jimmy Kimmel is doing great

[@beeemm2104]

of course with reason you can take this a "few steps further ™" gaining moaR detailed control...and you forgot to mention the *master send levels* up in the eq section! -> these are handy global controls which get little attention from content providers! 🕶 cheers.

[@StockMusicMusician]

That’s a great point about the master send levels! I would normally just boost the input of the send channel, but boosting the master send level is probably the better way to do things!

[@beeemm2104]

@@StockMusicMusician underused function =) also splitting l/r outputs to seperate return l/mono channels and seperate pan controls there dude.nicer. 😎

[@johnnysidneydavis]

What would you do if you needed 14-20 effects?

[@StockMusicMusician]

Probably use a different DAW. Reason doesn’t scale well. There’s some work arounds, but by the time you have more than sixteen channels on Reason, it becomes really hard to manage.

[@LORDSofCHAOS333]

of you just give me an idea .
