Propellerhead software has today launched its latest Reason 6 software together with Reason Essentials & Balance Audio Interface, providing the complete audio recording and editing solution.
Reason 6 has been redesigned to provide an “easy to grasp” interface for independent-minded musicians and allows them to customize and build their own virtual rack. This virtual rack can include drum machines, loop players, samplers, synths, reverb, delay, distortion, mastering effects, and more to create the perfect sound.

Enhanced Features and Capabilities
Combining all the features from Record, Reason 6 adds audio recording and editing, along with Propellerhead’s mixing console with EQ and dynamics on every channel, multiple parallel racks, Line 6 amp models, new effect devices plus additional features. The integration of these features makes Reason 6 a powerful tool for both novice and professional musicians. The mixing console, inspired by large-format studio consoles, offers a comprehensive set of tools for shaping your sound. Each channel strip includes a high-quality EQ, dynamics section, and insert effects, allowing for precise control over every aspect of your mix.
The inclusion of Line 6 amp models provides guitarists and bassists with a range of authentic amp tones, from clean and crisp to heavily distorted. This feature is particularly useful for those who want to record guitar and bass tracks directly into Reason without the need for external hardware.
Reason Essentials and Balance Audio Interface
Reason Essentials is a streamlined version of Reason 6, offering the core features needed for music production at a more affordable price. It includes a selection of instruments and effects, as well as the same intuitive interface found in the full version. This makes it an excellent choice for beginners or those who need a lightweight solution for mobile recording.
The Balance Audio Interface is designed to work seamlessly with Reason 6 and Reason Essentials. It features high-quality preamps, low-latency performance, and a rugged design, making it ideal for both studio and live use. The interface includes two XLR/TRS combo inputs, two TRS outputs, and a headphone output, providing all the connectivity needed for a typical recording setup.
Reason 6 and Essentials are available via a limited Beta testing today and will be available to purchase from tomorrow for the following prices: Reason 6 $449; Reason Essentials $299; Reason 6 Upgrade (from any Reason version and Reason Essentials) for $169.
The combination of Reason 6, Reason Essentials, and the Balance Audio Interface offers a comprehensive solution for musicians and producers. Whether you are recording a full band, creating electronic music, or producing a podcast, these tools provide everything you need to achieve professional results.
