This is Jose Caban. Mac OSX, Reason and Cue Bass are registered trademarks with their respective companies and I am in no way affiliated with Apple, Propellerhead or Steinberg. So we're going to send the midi data from the first thing if you remember it was [vocal beat] back to Reason and we're going to manipulate that sound and it's going to sound however we want it to, something with a synthe. I'm thinking something like, something like taking off. Like a car or spaceship type of thing like that so I want a real hard synth sound I think for that. So let's go ahead and send it in there and we're going to connect it in to the male strum and we're going to take a couple seconds and listen to what we have in the male strum and we'll turn on the sawtooth. It's too high pitched for me. Now a lot of times when you're doing this you're going to need to mix in your beat just to hear your sounds together. I think something like that's not bad.
Kewl, but talks way to much instead of getting to the point, makes it hard to want to follow all the way through, boring.
