Well if you haven't heard by now, then it's time to introduce Reason 9.5...........NOW WITH VST SUPPORT!!!!
Didn't believe it until Props confirmed it. https://www.propellerheads.se/reason-95
Well, it is indeed a good development. Yet, Reason though reason is great - I use for mixing cuz I love that work flow - it requires a beast of a computer as always. That's Reason's main drawback, that resource hungriness..
Hi there pash, nice to see another Reason user here.
It's funny you mentioned that Reason is power hungry as I've personally found the opposite to be true but I guess it all depends on your RE chains and what bitrate etc. you're working on.
For me, the only other DAW that I can say uses less resources would be Reaper, having dabbled with Pro Tools and Studio OneV3 etc.
