FL Studio ASIO Error when opening Reason

Hi,

I installed Reason 9.5 and FL Studio 20. Independently of FL Studio being running or not, when I open Reason I get the following error message:
FL Studio ASIO Error : Couldn't initialize rendering in shared mode! code -2004287480.

Any idea where it can come from?

Thanks.

Re: Should Propellerheads turn Reason into a AU/VST and focus solely on content rather than being a DAW?

The best way to go IMHO is to provide VST versions of some of their REs. (for instance DrOctoRex, is there a VST competitor?). Another point I need to check is how to transfer automation lanes from DAWx to Reason (Probaly MIDI). It looks like all of us feel the need, soon or late, to use a second DA...

Re: What is your favorite wav to mp3 converter?

Btw. I'm using ffmpeg for this. For me, that's the easiest way of doing conversions or containings. On windows it's a bit of a mess to have ffmpeg compiling with libfdk_acc. Glad I'm using it on macos. More generally speaking, ffmpeg is a great tool. Once I capture my screen with OBS, I use ffmpeg ...

Well, VST(i) are only 2nd class citizens to the rack, while RE are 1st class.
Great! Please recommend me 1st class RE to replace 2nd class VSTs like Neutron 2, Ozone 8 or VPS Avenger. Of course these REs will be able to be used in any DAW.

Re: Am I right that I can't load samples from Refills into VSTs?

However... as Reason has now grown up and has let VSTs into the family... wouldn't you have thought that some type of synergy is required in Reason 10... allowing some way for Refill samples to be moved into VSTs? I understand the piracy argument - but when "copy protection" gets in the way of work...

Your arguments make sense. The show must go on. My only concern is I am not able to reproduce this set up with 64 bits VST. (See the 2 Signal Analyzer small windows).

Re: New CPU gives worse performance.

A lot of great recommendations here. I would suggest that before anything else, you check there is no ongoing Windows update. MicroSoft loves to run a lot of automatic programs in the background and one of the more CPU consuming is the Windows update system. As an example, if you just purchased a ne...

Re: FAQ: VST in Reason

My experience is that jBridge doesn't always work. Other softwares support both 64 bits and 32 bits VSTs at the same time and this, transparently for the user. Maybe, PPH should consider this. Yes, and why do they support it? Because it's legacy code inside and they've come a long way with VST supp...

Does [insert name] plugin work with Reason? Reason is natively compatible with 64 bit VST 2.4 plugins which covers most plugins on Mac and PC. 32 bit VSTs may possibly work with jBridge or similar wrappers. My experience is that jBridge doesn't always work. Other softwares support both 64 bits and ...

Re: Am I right that I can't load samples from Refills into VSTs?

Some years ago there was a Refill un-packer kicking around - allowing you to see inside a Refill and drag files out of it (just like WinZip). If you look at ReasonMusic.ru for "refill_viewer_unpacker.rar" you should be able to find it. I tried to use it myself - with partial success. If I had more ...

Re: Vengeance Sound's VPS Avenger is simply *THE BEST* VST synth on the market for EDM, IMHO

Yes, the lack of song/wave and MIDI files in VPS Avenger expansion packs adds an extra effort to understand the intent of a preset. However, as a workaround, it seems that each expansion pack has an associated marketing Youtube video. Below the marketing video for the PSY Expansion: [media]https://w...

Re: Vengeance Sound's VPS Avenger is simply *THE BEST* VST synth on the market for EDM, IMHO

I started to use Avenger one week ago. It complements my synths set: ABL3, Predator RE, Spire. Avenger is by far my favorite synth today. I found it complicated to use at a first glance but I quickly captured the essence of the synth and started to have fun with it. I also purchased the PSY Expansi...

There are boxes that generate MIDI thrus from a MIDI IN. The cheapest I found is the "Miditech Midi Thru/Filter" at 38€. You will have 1 MIDI input and 4 MIDI thrus.
