I'm sorry but reason has NOTHING like fm8 and certainly nothing that can produce powerful sounds right out of the box like massive. Don't get me wrong, I love reason, but saying what it has is comparable to fm8 is beyond absurd...
I have one word for you: Coki.
What in the hell does coki have to do with fm synths? When did I say that reason was shit? I'll do you one better, Koan sound uses reason as well. I'm not saying reason sucks. I'm saying that fm8 and sytrus are better than reason for additive synthesis. I'm not saying they're better all around; I'm saying they are better for fm synthesis, THAT'S IT.

it's all preference, the live tab is definitely loop based but the arrangement tab is prime for great workflow. But we all have our opinions don't we :corndance:

Duuuuude. If you have a mac just go with Logic. It can do everything Reason can and some, is more reputable, has a better layout (IMO), can support VST's, has better stock plugins and samples. Why would you even bother using Reason anymore? :?

Oh, sorry, touched a nerve did I? Fuck off. Don't start an argument you have no knowledge about and don't derail the OP's thread by trying to get some repressed anger off your chest. Bellend.

Take a joke, buddy...

I actually really wish I could use Logic and Reason in combination but I don't have a Mac. Logic alone really isn't enough to justify me getting one, since I'm perfectly happy with Windows 7 in all other respects
