Is this a bug or a feature? I can't count how many times I accidentally exported an AIF file these days. And Reason even "remembers" that I used WAV last time, and puts ".wav" at the end up the filename... before the extension. So I get a lot of exported files names "XYZ.wav.aif", because Reason really wants us exporting in AIF now, I guess.

It’s always been that way on macs for me as long as I can remember, slightly frustrating since I never use aiff.

It's a bug. They might fix it one day.

I could have sworn that a recent 12.2.x update changed that, depending on your last save, but the latest update it defaults back to AIFF again.
I can't see this being a difficult fix at all. I never use AIFF either.

It seems that there's lots of bugs of old features that have always worked before. Gotta wonder why they appear in the Reason 12 in a such a big amount.

They must have refactored the code and made those bugs.
