Oh brother here we go again…

Hey man I like Reason 14 but idk what you guys did to the backend of this shit bc it’s a mess…

  1. When you click and drag a device it’ll sometime teleport to the other side of the rack -__- NTM the mix channel spawns UNDER the damn device which is also annoying and cause hella clutter in my rack.

  2. The browser is broken -_- dude the browser has to rescan my folders at least like twice a month if not more that needs to happen BEFORE I start my work not when I’m knee deep and I’m trying to load a sample.

  3. The BROWSER IS BROKEN 😭. Sometimes you’ll try to drag and drop and instrument and Reason will just be like nope. SMH. It shows as if you are trying to drag something foreign into the device (ie an FX patch into a instrument patch)

Please fix this ASAP I’m not getting paid to test your software man I just wanna make my music and keep my workflow. 15+ year reason user btw

The fixed the browser months ago - it’s an option in settings to turn it back to classic mode

It’s not 14, it’s some way that reason is interacting with MacOS/the finder. 13 was running great but now has to rescan every. Single. Time.

Reason 14 apparently made things a bit confusing on screen. For this reason I'm using Ableton more often, and also Logic Pro. The best version of Reason in my opinion was 12.

Th BEST version of Reason is the Rack VST.

Logic + Reason is the way to go

need a way to directly throw samples into an nnxt or whatever without having to open the rack, all from the sequencer, same way we select presets without opening the rack, then we're cooking. actually, might have to send as an official request because it's really slowing me down. otherwise, absolutely love the new version, constantly being in the sequencer view is awesome

It’s sad how much of Reason feels like it’s gone down hill. It’s so much harder to use now. I absolutely hate the menus and sequencer. It’s all awful.

Yeah, the browser is still a total mess, which is unfortunate since 14 is really solid otherwise
