It actually has to do with taste.

Fl is good in a way
Reason is good in a way

It's all just a matter of the will to learn and progress.

I think that fl is more beginner friendly tho (what i've heard).
No prog is better than the other, tho it's a matter of will to learn by yourself.

Tho i suggest trying them both.

I like acid, you can do a lot of cool things. However you must make sure you must have a lot of your own raw audio or a wide variety of loopz to work with or it isn't much use.

*weighs programs*

both have great potential - and both can produce professional results - its just fl takes a lot of SKILL to sound professional - and most people don't bother with this. As B0UNC3 and I can vouch for - when ppl listen to your fl songs and ask "did you use Reason to make this?" you know it's pretty good.

Also I hate ppl that talk in gangster vocabulary. This is the audio forum - learn to speak like the rest of us please.

Hmmm i took one look at reason and thought mmm thats nice, i wonder what that does.

Whereas i saw FL, looked at it for 5 mins and never touched it again.....

Acid Pro took me about 2 weeks to get the basics of, but thats cos i didnt know anything about sequencing or anything then.....

My take on it:

Reason - soundbank owns.
FL - not sure, but i've heard its got some very good wav effects you can do.
Acid Pro - good sequencer, good VST ("module") effects can be found and used. But quite unreliable, i had pro 4 crash on me at least 20 times everyday, but pro 5 seems to crash only when i try rewiring with reason, but i'll figure it out.

hmmm, you shoudlve listened to the demos and templates in fl, theyn show theres some really awesome stuff you can do with fl. And it sure sounds really proffesional. And it isnt even that hard to make because it fruity loops:P another plus point for fl;)

This is a bit wrong so let me correct that:

EASY AND PROFESSIONAL = FL5+ReWired+REASON 3.0 - For advanced users!
This is an explosive mix , try it !!!

I have been using Acid Pro 3.0 by Sonic Foundry, for about 4 years now. I know most of the program by the back of my hand. It is a wonderfull tool for looping and editing premade sound files. For the last 3 months I have been madly in love with a well mentioned program by Propellerhead Software called Reason 3.0. This is by far the ultimate in sound synth, and worth every penny I spent.

Acid Pro Pack:
-Uses most forms of sound files including mp3, wave, aif, midi, and more
-It can include a proffessional sound file editing studio called SoundForge to create custom loops and professional quality.
-Can include a movie editing program built right into the main Acid program, allowing you to perfectly sequence you loops with your movie.
-Supports nearly an infinite amount of loops toggled on the mapping window for one song. (I used over 50 files in one song before)
-Compatible with almost any OS, needing low requirements to work

Reason 3.0:
-Primarily used for total creation outta scratch.
-All synths and samples sound 100% authentic.
-Comes with one drum machine (ReDrum) capable of playing 9 loops, each loop being an individual percussion/fx sound.
-Comes with one drum looping device (Dr. Rex) capable of looping a sample of any type of percussion beat-hundreds of samples included.
-Two synthesizers, one is a combo sound manipulator, the other is a single drive engine. (TRUST ME THE GADGETS ON THESE SOUND PANELS IS AMAZING TO SEE)
http://www.propellerheads.se/
-Two samplier programs designed to digitally sample any audio saved as an .aif file.
-Others include combinators(will blow your mind in complexity), equalizers, digital fx generators, reverb, flangers, etc.
-This program is loaded with a preset sound bank, and sounds totally professional.
-Only set back is, you better be serious about making music cause the typical retail price runs between $400 and $550.
-Capable of producing all genres of music from techno, rock, hip hop, to classical and beyond...I even used it to make a spooky ambience loop for a tattoo shop's webpage.
-It has been the greatest music tool I have ever used.

Other programs I have used is a demo called Orion Platinum. This program inspired me to get Reason, becuase it is simply a less advanced version. I hope this info will help.
