not being able to easily automate tempo changes and the way it gets a bit of a spaghetti junction once the racks start mounting up.

what I hate most about Reason is the fact that anyone with a pc can become a "beatmaker"

no diss on the dubsteppaz that use it...

but when I was selling equip at the local gay-tar center, every hiphop / rap douchebag was a "podusa", cuz he uses that "reasons"

EDIT: I havent used reason since 2.0. that is when I switched to a vst host

yeah! as am I.

I think humility is the key in life.

having said that...

if you use "reasons" be sure to render your tunes through some vst host or some kinda audio engine other than the one that comes with it.

I digress...

this thread probably belongs in the production forum

I hate the 12 bit sound... soon to be fixed in 4.0 as is the sequencer. Dont know about using it for raw wavs though, I think theyre sticking to the midi based control, but thats what Live 5.0 is for

the worst thing about reason is people's opinions about it :P

I think peoples opinions will change with 4.0, supposedly its a bottom up rebuild that adresses all the major problems including the sequencer and the 'Reason sound'

people guessing what software you use has got nothin to do with the software

by that I mean the flat sound...

reason produces 16bits of audio, like most progs, but the problem with reason is that if you use the 16:4 mixer, 4 bits of audio are reserved for the effects on that mixer, leaving the actual audio at 12 bits...

so unless you re:wire it into another host ie protools or Live, youre losing that little bit of sound quality... it may not be noticable all the time, but compared head to head with a 16 bit recording on good speakers it can be - thats what I mean by "reason sound"

this is one of the main issues addressed in 4.0 along with the user friendliness of the sequencer

btw, 4.0 is available as a beta if you are a regestered Reason user on the propellerheads site...
