Maybe someone has tips on how this could help or make the overall sound better.

Personally no matter where my sources are coming from I like to do the mixing in PT and not the source. That way I have total control of the mix because if you're also using stuff recorded in PT along with what you're importing you may need to make changes to the imported files (like eq, compression, mix balance, etc.) and why fight what was done in the source?
I use Reason but never multiple tracks; at most I use Rewire for certain sounds I have in Reason than what I have available in my other synths - like the Abbey Road Keyboards or Thor. That way I have the audio in PT and can work with it to my heart's content.
Another place I mix in PT and not the source is with BFD2 drums. I bring out the direct mics, ambient mics, overheads and such to individual channels in PT so I can change things as needed. That and I don't like the mixer in BFD.
