Virtual rack with real cables. Now lives as a plugin inside other DAWs.
Reason launched in 2000 with a skeuomorphic interface that looked like a physical rack of hardware synths, complete with virtual cables you could flip around to see on the back panel. It was revolutionary β a self-contained studio where everything was wired together visually. The Europa synth, Kong drum machine, and Combinator are still unique. Reason Studios pivoted to a Rack Plugin format that works inside other DAWs, giving it a second life as the ultimate instrument collection.
