Well, as a real active user of Reason since Reason 1.0, i can honestly say that Propellerheads really RUINED it.They just showed us all how to ruin a great program.. totally.. They slack cause they sell anyways.Regoove tool is totally useless.Like all old reason users say i say it here again, the old interface was way better & handy, controlling automations was much way better and handy too..what they tried to do with vectors,it just didnt work.Propellerheads Team have the advantage of taking serious opinions and advices about the program in propllerheads.se reasonstation.net combinatorhq.com and many more webpages just belongs to reason users.But they just dont listen to them, they only listen some lazy and clueless rnb producers who doesnt have any clue about production, mastering etc.After a looong force in all reason forums we could provide Props Team make reason fullscreen (they ruined it aswell it's real pain to use that ability )and it took freakin 3 years...Since Reason 1.0 people are crying for VST input but Props team says this will never happen.I dont really know why they insist on not making Reason better since noones sharing good stuff in reasonstation like old days anymore and for godsake it's not midi tool you are making a music program why are you insisting on keeping it closed for anything... For example; Since reason 1.0 they could let audio input in reason at 5th release...
About Reason 5 i dont really know what did they add to it (expect audio in)Dr Octo Rex = 4 Dr Rex, they just enhanced Dr Rex thats all.Kong is a sample shape based graintable drum synth, it's sweet but it's using the same mechanics of Malström.So what did they really do for 5th relese expect using same tecniques? NOTHING!
Sorry for my bad English.
Cheers.
