It's rather simple, but I for the love of God can not figure it out in my head the way that I think it should be done. I'm wanting to make a transition in the track that I'm working on, and had the idea of bringing the pitch down on EVERYTHING over the course of maybe an off-beat or two. I got the idea from a multiplitude of songs (it'll be lots of FX and synths to "fill the air" then everything sounds like the pitch drops into an impact of sorts with a huge reverb-like atmosphere/pad. Now, I don't know if the pitch is actually dropped, or if it's simply my ears playing tricks on me.I'd give examples, but I can't think of the name of any songs that do have it. Help if you can.

Vinyl Stop. Yes, there are like 250 different ways to do this.

dBlue Glitch.
Tape stop.

Since you want to do it on the whole track, why not just use dBlue in a free/demo DAW on the whole track once it's done, then just bounce out?

Manually I'd automate a pitch down slowly then a sharp pitch up, whilst also filtering down and then back up. Surely Reason has a global pitch control... idk?

I knew there was an extremely simple way to do it, but for some reason there seemed to be a much more complex way to do it that would somehow make it sound better.

I don't understand your point, are you saying you want an better/more complex way or that you thought my way would be more complex than it is?

yeah just automate the pitch wheel on the combinator

edit: for added flavor i like to thrown on a scream 4 tape distortion and automate the speed so it goes down with the pitch adds a nice subtle dulling of the sound

No, no. I already knew that it's extremely easy, but in my head, I for some odd reason thought that to make it much better, it'd take a lot more effort, but I now realize that it can't get any harder than just pitch bending.
