Todd Rundgren interview at South by Southwest in 2009 about how he recorded his latest album “Arena” using RiffWorks and Reason. “I found a program called RiffWorks that allowed me to connect through ReWire to Reason.

For some reason, Todd’s speaking voice is very comforting. Also, Arena kicks ass, go buy it if you haven’t yet.
Todd isindeed a boffin. Also his voice is an enigma . When speaking he sounds like a didgeridoo…when singing his voice is as sweet and soars like a songbird. ‘Sweet bird of truth’.
Wonder if he used this producing the new New York Dolls CD?

Wow! Great info and insight Todd! Thanks Sonoma for posting this! I have this product on order from Musicians Friend and should have it in a few days.
Im never going to record an album but all I know is RiffWorks makes recoding fun an easy an it takes you from just playing guitar to making your own music. I play stuff I never wouldve with out it. I play for fun an riffworks makes it even more fun. An the instant drummer is outstanding makes me play better an sound better too.
