I can't believe reason doesn't have something like a freq analyser, you seriously have to use another DAW? :roll:

I hope I'm not being a dick, but instead of trying to see what frequencies are occupying your track, why not listen to your track?

Obviously drums like snare are mid-range, bass tends to be low-freq, guitar is mid, cymbals are high, etc.

I don't see the utility in knowing exactly what frequencies you're using in your track, though.

If you have any questions, feel free to send me a PM.

Also, a DAW is a DAW. Rusko uses Acid, other people use Logic, Live. The DAW is just a tool. You can do the same thing in every DAW. It's all about personal preference.

No, your not being a dick I get your point and from what I "heard" everything sat well enough but for some reason when I uploaded it onto youtube where it was HQ there was some strange wobbly noise in the background going along with my sub bass which I haven't added and there is no lfo added to my sub?
Just wanna get rid of this anoying sound, unless it's youtube that has distorted it?
I dunno but it's on soundcloud if anyone want's a listen?

YouTube's "HQ" is still shit quality. It's fairly common for tunes that go thru multiple conversions (ie from DAW to mp3 and then from mp3 to YT) to get some weird artifacts in them. This could be wobbling, distortion, or just nasty digital artifacts.

Burn it to a CD and if it sounds fine, you're cool.

probably just artifacts in the youtube compression, and could be the result of phasing if your bass is out of phase.

most stuff sounds horrible on youtube lol
