This video shows how I have the Reason/Thor MIDI to CV conversion process applied to the moogerfoogers. The MF-107 FreqBox oscillator output is connected directly into the MF-101 Low pass filter. Thor’s key note value, mod wheel, pitch bend, aftertouch, LFO, and envelope generators all modulate the two pedals to create a functional […]

Lately It seems like the only things I purchase from guitar cnter are connectors and jacks. Yesterday I wandered in to get (more) connectors to make some XLR to 1/8″ phone cables which would further my experiments using Reason 4.0 as a control voltage generator with some of my analog synthesizers. Surprisingly, they had […]

The introduction of Volta from Mark of the Unicorn, is especially exciting news for those of us who have held on to our beloved analog gear. Volta is an application/plug-in that sends control voltage signals through MOTU hardware interfaces which can trigger and modulate analog hardware synthesizers and effects. The beauty of this […]

I’ll be in New York City during the beginning of June for a few days - long enough to drop in on the first official Reason Users Group NYC event at Dubspot. I’ll be talking about Malstrom stuff, Combi Stuff and building Malstrom effects. There’s also a Q&A session afterwards where we can […]

If i’m not too harried with setting things up for the Producers Conference in Los Angeles, I’ll try to […]

In case you didn’t know, the Scream 4 Tape Compression algorithm induces somewhat of a phase inversion to signals passing through the device. As the photograph of the oscilloscope indicates, It’s not a perfect phase reverse because the signal is also being processed by the effect, but it’s enough to cause some problems if […]

This is a set of scope images taken during an analysis of Reason’s Scream 4 Sound Destruction Unit. Original Signals - Sawtooth wave generated by a Thor Polysonic Synth in Reason 4.0

Overdrive Algorithm - Despite the transformation of the signal, the phase generally follows the sawtooth phase

Distortion Algorithm - The signal processing is slightly […]

Mark down the date: Saturday May 9, 09. There will be Producer Conferences throughout North America and Europe on that date - including one at the Propellerhead Software Headquarters in Stockholm! Other cities include Berlin, Guildford, New York, and I’ll be presenting at the conference in Los Angeles.

The release of the Thor Step Sequencer System Refill is no longer available through the Line6 website. Sorry I completely forgot that the “Expand Your Reason Rack” promotion ended in 2008. I’ve posted the file in the Reason Refill download section and you may download is available here:
