I can only tell about versions I personally use.

FL Studio up to version 6 works on 98se. I should be able to test v8 soon.

Sound Forge 6 works on 98se.

Lots of Native instrument programs run fine.

Cubase 5.1 and SX work. Newer versions are unsupported and need testing.

Finally, I don't know about Reason since I don't have it.

You should test your programs using a virtual machine. If everything is ok, then you can migrate.

Windows XP makes seem that hardware is not powerful

Windows 98 is much more fast and consumes less resources

You may want to check your XP configrations (AKA Registry). My Windows XP machine used for only audio editing purposes will run on 14 processes and 56 MB of RAM idling. That's not even a N Lite version.

You can use Windows 98 if you like, but do remember some third party plug-ins (VST) will not operate on Windows 98 (Been there, done that) without some type of error or worse won't install.

That was the main reason I updated to Windows 98 to Windows XP when I was on a 500 MHZ Celeron using 192 MB of RAM years ago. During that time, I used an N Lite Version of XP so it would only consume 40 MB of RAM. Unless your machine is lower than 500 MHZ, I don't see how you can't tweak XP to run faster.

I'm not a Reason user (Samplitude and Wavelab only) but I'm sure it would be more stable on Windows XP with the amount of workload involved.

Good LucK!
