i did the same thing u did and i never went back to FL, the best way to find out how to use reason is to play around with it and dont give up when your too confused

cool, im just feeling like im alittle limited with FL, like im not getting any more advanced or anything...

Well according to other users and hearing what can come from FL, i think that its very well capable of creating the goods which would be equivalant to Reason....I think what it comes down to really is how u like to work?...Do u want a self-contained environment, where everything as far as pre-production stays inside the box?....Or do u want something thats no-holds-bar so to speak, that allows third party applications etc. to intervene???......I think its all about what makes u the most comfortable and nothing more becuase it all comes back to that old saying - "Its not what u use, but how u use it".

that may or may not be do to the software you are using

a lot of peeps jump from program to program thinking the next program will make them a good producer... I'm not saying you're one of those people - I'm just saying...

I tried going to reason


but ...FL just offered more - more VSTs and FX and Lets me use my racks

reason is like WYSIWYG - and i like to get out the box...so it didnt work to me like i hoped

I switch from fl studio to reason a few months back now I mainly use reason but I am still drawn back to fl because of all of the vst's, on some projects I rewire reason, fl and project 5 becuase they each have differnt sounds

FL and Reason are really the same. Reason(to me) is more if you had a lot of hardware and are trying to make that smooth crossover to software to where FL is more like(oh your new ok).BOTH will deliver results that(with hard work) can have a over critical cat(like me) saying "damn nigga thats hot" it all goes into "WHAT WORKS FOR YOU"!

ONE!
