?? you're in the final mixing/mastering stage and you're considering buying Reason..?
so I take it you didn't produce it with Reason..
In that case; you can't use Reason' mastering suite for external audio files because Reason doesn't have audio tracks..

just a thought..

@ telescope
If you only going to buy Reason for it's mastering suite I would personally stick to Live and use it's native devices + maybe buy an extra 3rd party plugin..

Ofcourse there's this workarround but I doubt if this is really 'workable'..
Mastering whole tracks in the NN-XT sampler is not what you want to do..

sometimes ideas not very common are best. so first it sounds strange, second, if you consider reasons sound the real thing for you - why not?

because you cannot scrub through your track this is not even close to workable..

before you waste time on crap like that master inside reason, though it takes a year per track.
