Display Instruments/FX on the bottom of the Sequencer

[owlymane]

The beautiful thing about Reason is the way it makes you feel physically in front of a rack with a bunch of weird and trippy generators, trying to figure out how to make things weirder . This esthetic is one of their strongest differentiating strength, yet it only lies in 2 sections, the rack and master.

The sequencer at the moment feels dull and inefficient compared to the other sections. But the ReGroove and its section are a potential representation of how Reason can improve its sequencer to slowly be as powerful and independent as the rack or mixer.

If any instrument with its FX are showcased at the bottom when selected, visually appearing as they would in the rack but alligned at the bottom of the sequencer screen like Regroove, it would bring this Reason touch to the sequencer and improve workflow to a whole other level. Going perhaps further by being able to flip the instruments and make connections in the sequencer.

Went too far at the end (or not?)..but just a thought that this type of instrument/fx representation in the sequencer would keep Reason's identity and improve workspeed

EDIT: And if you're wondering what would be the use of the Rack since you can pretty much do everything in the Sequencer in this scenario. Competitors, such as FL Studio, also have pattern rack that pretty much does exactly what the sequencer does, but still have the 2 sections. There's really nothing wrong with that. Same for ableton. You can pretty much do everything in any section, except the sequencing of course. Also, notice how players are basically mini-sequencers in the rack, so why not replicate the other way, rack to sequencer. A DAW that inspires you in any section

It would be also nice if this section can be showed/hidden like ReGroove, for those who are running Reason on 2/3 screens
