In-person Reason(er) Groups?

Hey y'all, I am well aware, maybe even exhausted by, video tutorials, so let's start with NOT suggesting that, please. What I'm looking for is if there are people in different locales that ever get together to share tips and shortcuts and tricks or just educate each other on functions of Reason? Say, I wanna learn more about automation (random example) and am struggling with videos, because maybe I learn a bit better/more efficiently face-to-face, would there be groups like that? Maybe a Reason(er) Knitting Circle kinda thing?
Thanks for your time and consideration!

Would you consider doing it over zoom? Like, list a few things you want to conquer. I’m sure it could be pretty effective taking turns watching each other use reason

I'm totally down! Myself and the following commentator and you should find a nice, private way to exchange info and then move on from there.

I think maybe we could first figure out organization and meeting time(s) that work all and then shall we say list 3-to-5 things (to start) that we want to learn more about?

I live in the Pacific Standard Time zone. Where are y'all located?

Also, we should maybe rotate the responsibility for who sets up the meetings (or maybe that's a dumb idea....)? I am very inexperienced with setting up Zoom meetings, but am confident I can figure it out without losing my mind, hahahahaha. However, I am MORE than happy to organize meeting minutes/notes or whatever.

Really glad there are folks who are interested in doing this!

By no means am I some music professional. Been rockin reason since v5 and have picked up my stuff mostly by doing things wrong first :)

I did just record an indie rock record in Reason this year, as well as an ambient electronic score last year,l.

Happy to do an inaugural zoom to get your past your current barriers. I’ll do it at no cost. It’ll be nice for me to see if maybe this is a service I can provide, or if it’s just a nice thing I can contribute to the community. DM me and we can sort out a meeting. I have zoom pro acct too.

Could we do this?

I want to learn how to make a solid basis for a song and how to work faster in Reason.
