I can't seem to find a complete answer for this. I'm wondering if there is a way that I can import sounds/drum kits from Reason 3. Most of the sound files are .sxt or.cmb and I'm assuming have to be converted to .wav. Is there anyway to do this?

Did you do a search for "WAV" inside the reason program folders?
What did you find?

No, I don't use Reason. Yes, I've installed it on pc's before.

That too, I'd say different not better.
From the program folder will be factory default.

From the line out will introduce coloring/artifacts/hum/crosstalk from whatever soundcard/cabling
associated with the computer.

That could be bad or good depending on the circumstances

Okay, I was afraid of that. This may be a stupid question, but Lampdog suggested that I search the folder for WAV files, I was attempting to do it but I couldn't figure it out. Would I actually open up Reason to search for wav files or is it something I would do via the "Finder" on my mac?

You could make a sequence with one "1-shot" after the other and then render that sequence to a wav. you'll then of course have to re-chop them up but this is a way you can avoid added noise or coloration.
