"What's up? My name is Darin from Expert Village and I'm going to show you guys how to create a song using Reason. Alright, so, we pretty much have got all the effects down. Right here I'm going to show you guys the chorus and the flanger. Alright, so here I have my bass line down, which is...as a subtracter bass, delayed bass, hooked up to the DDL, digital delay. So once we have the digital delay hooked up, I'm going to go ahead and choose "chorus" from here. Once I turn it on it will make a sound like it's doubled in ways. So here you can also change it. We have the lay down, the feedback. The feedback's in the middle and pretty much almost sounds almost the same as what's before. The matamouth changes up a lot, which makes it sound, like, really warped. Change the rate of it. Take off syn-morph, it will take off that whole allophone effect for scene. So I have it like...and they go right back into that phasing, that chorus flanger. Or you can have it on syn-morph. It will be all flowing with it right there. Now, if you want feedback, you can go towards the plus, which makes it more deep. If you went towards the negative it makes more treble. So I like to have it right there, towards right there. So once I have that down it sounds pretty cool. And once I have the bass line down and I have the flanger on it I can go ahead and throw the re-drum on there. So that's how the chorus and flanger works right there."
