Def one of the best progs ever made in history i think.

I mean it kicks the crap out of most apps which only allow certains functions, whereas Reason boasts a sequencer/arranger, along with Processors, synths, Samplers, and Mixers.

What more could you ask for....???

.......i like to use reason 3.0 ('cause it's what i got right now) even though i'd love to have 4.0 with Thor, RPG8, Regroove, etc. 3.0 is still the beef of Reason though.....create massive rack stacks.....midi is great...... synths (malstrom ....beatmachine/sampler (redrum)....samplers (NN19 NNXT)...connectivity....effects......I choose Reason over fl studio any day.....you have so much more room for creativity........great tools........i like to sync its midi to my korg ms2000 or electribe es-1 or control Reason's parameters via midi......endless possibilities........it greatly complements many other softwares or hardware

in my opinion...the power of reason is understated by many.......the possibilities are endless.....its not a recording studio.....but a mere production tool where the sky's the limit......use your creativity...if you want your own vocals, use other software like soundforge or cubase, etc for your audiofiles for use with reason i.e. using them in the rack plugins......or use recyle to convert your audio to dr rex files to use with your projects..........so many different ways to use reason....u don't even have to use it's arranger....why not create your own loops for export.....improvise...create.....break the rules!!
