 Reason is a popular real-time sound synthesis and sample-playback software program developed by Swedish software developers Propellerhead Software. It emulates a rack of hardware synthesizers, sample players, signal processors, sequencers and mixers. Reason can be used either as a complete virtual music studio, or as a ReWire synth application in other sequencing software. It can also act as a ReWire mixer application for Propellerhead's ReBirth.

The design mimics a studio rack into which users can place various modules. As of version 3.0 these include two mixers, a subtractive synthesizer, a graintable synthesizer and four different kinds of sample players - one with a step sequencer designed to be used for drums/percussion, two samplers for tonal instruments, and a sliced loop playback device. Available effects modules include distortion, reverb, chorus, a vocoder and mastering effects. The Combinator device, introduced in version 3.0, allows users to combine multiple modules into one. These modules can be controlled from Reason's built-in MIDI sequencer or, via Propellerhead's ReWire protocol, via other sequencing applications such as Pro Tools, Logic, and GarageBand.
