I just picked up reason 5, fruity loops, and audacity....I'm trying to sample music to make my own remix...I'm just having trouble loading a certain song so I can start working with it because it's not a certain file type.....
As of right now, all I want to do is open a certain song as a project and start playing around to try and attempt a remix...
1. Which program is great for opening a full song in any format and then being able to save it in another format for a program like reason? (I had one by microsoft awhile ago, but can't remember the name.)
Thanks in advance.

audacity should be able to handle most jobs.

.mp3 that's the only version of this song I can find. I tried loading it into audacity and it just did about a 1.5 second bit, not the whole song in its entirety.

Sound forge worked great. Now, I just have to learn how to extract the particular sounds I want. Much thanks.

Did you install LAME, so audacity can properly handle mp3s?
You could just open it in Fruity?
You know attempting a remix is very bold for a newbie..

Open FL
Chennels > Add One > Audio Clip > Click the little picture of a folder too load.
If you cant see the waveform!
Make sure audio clip is selected in the step sequencer, click soemwhere on the playlist too add it in... theres a little dropdown menu at the top of audio clips in the playlist, one of the options is edit sample, this will Edison it for waveform view when streaming from disc.
