This whole folder is a pig to use and could benefit from:
*Consistency
Currently "Kong MonoPoly" but also "PredatorRE Instrument" as opposed to "Rob Papen PredatorRE Instrument".
This means you have to look in two places every time you want to browse the folder.
(I prefer the Developer -> Plugin format).
*Subfolders
For a start have separate folders for
Instruments
Effects
Utilities
Players
This should be easy - you already know which is which because they appear organised in the main browser.
Better still
Instruments/Developer/Plugin.
*Integration.
Why are Pangea patches found in the RE folder but Europa ones found in the Factory Sounds folder? They both come standard with Reason.
Better to have them in the same place.
My vote would be: anything that comes with Reason, put it in the Factory Sounds folder.
*Consolidation.
It's a serious pain to have to browse in 3 places:
Reason 10 Sounds
Factory Sounds
Rack Extensions.
If you are browsing for a bass sound, you could potentially find what you're looking for in any of those 3 places. This is quite a disjointed experience.
Compare to Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol - NI have made it easy to browse all bass sounds in the same place, regardless of which synth creates it - even if 3rd party.
Reason is a self-contained environment - it's shame if other Developers overtake on Browsing as this was a big emphasis upon the introduction of Reason 8.
Rack Extension Folder - better organisation will make it more useful
