With the move to hi-res we're no longer relying on the OS to scale up the UI (chunky pixels and all) and by extension we also let VSTs open in hi-res and scale to the resolution and settings. Sadly it turns out many VSTs are not quite ready for this and expects the OS to handle the scaling. We're wo...

Just want to chime in that yeah, contacting support and installing the logging version is the best way to help us squash these bugs. Additionally, we've seen some issues in specific macOS versions. If you're not on the latest version of High Sierra or Mojave, make sure you update to that. Some of th...

Cool, an update!

But this part looks weird now:

Yeah, we noticed that a bit too late but didn't want to hold back the other bugfixes just for that. Fixed together with all remaining hi-res assets in the next update!

Thanks, but I already checked my settings, hyper-threading is off. I have even gone as far as doing a fresh Operating System install on one of my Macs...it didn't help. I left Reason open for half a day to make absolutely sure everything is cached...that also didn't help. It is also a pretty curren...

Indexing is happening in the background and indexes what you've put in your locations (i.e. the browser side bar). Depending on what's there, this can take more or less time. While it's indexing we fall back to what we call "slow search", i.e. the regular old searching that doesn't use the new datab...

Hm, i can't find Radical Piano RE anywhere in Reason folders on Windows ?!? Any idea? Maybe because it's built in. Oh interesting! Sorry I was thinking of the Soundiron stuff (Humana etc.). Maybe one for James? James knows most of the things :lol: No you're right. Radical Piano's the same as the Kl...

Happy release day! Just like every release, I wrote some words: https://www.reasonstudios.com/blog/comb ... -reason-12

Just officially saying that of course this is not true. Hi-res REs will be available for everyone on Reason 12. There's a new Authorizer version that handles this, you just sync REs from your account like always. Long term we want to move away from Authorizer, but that's how it is for now. :) thank...

yeah offlline play is more important than HD rack extensions for sure but now i have to ask, JP are you confirming that HD RE wont be avail for reason perpetual license holders until the migration to companion app? That's not even remotely close to what they said. Just officially saying that of cou...

Oh, I forgot to post this but as always I wrote some words on the new release in the Stories section of our site: https://www.reasonstudios.com/blog/intr ... ve-sampler

Update Reason to 12.1 to get it - it's built into Reason, not an installable RE. Reason auto-updater should handle it for you. Cheers- I have launched Reason but it is not saying an update is available yet? I am Reason+ and Beta This is in the release version, it's not in the beta currently. Grab t...

If I buy a subscription will I lose my standard licence for Reason 11 which I currently have? And then decide whether to continue the subscription or cancel it and upgrade the standard Reason 11 to 12 licence. No, you'd roll back to the latest perpetual version you have. Note that any songs made in...

The WHOLE DAW. Even the transport and browser increase in size. if thats the case then it would be just as easy to change resolution on the screen Except you wouldn't magically get more pixels without hi-res assets. That's the whole root of the problem and what people have been complaining about, t...

Sorry if this a stupid question. The scale ability thing concerns only the Reason Plugin Device and not Reason 12 DAW? :oops: It concerns both. :) We've re-built the entire graphics engine for all variations of Reason 12. I'm running an intel based Mac with an iris graphics device, what's the perfo...

No, it scales to the required size for your zoom level once, caches the images, and will then use that. It shouldn't be required to wait in Logic more than the time it takes to instantiate the plugin. If you're experiencing this even after scaling to your resolution of choice and then opening again...

Matthias: You mean, from R12 on I have to live with it, that everytime when I open a RRP window in Logic , I have to wait for some seconds until I see a clear image. Can't believe that you mean it ... you're a joking, right ? ... and yes , same question - can I switch it off, back to normal res. ? ...

What ? This is a release version or not ? I have to wait seconds until the gui is loaded ... wow, very impressive :lol: This is intentional, though I think we can get it even faster in future updates. Basically we're scaling each hi-res asset to suit your zoom level, OS zoom setting, screen, pixel ...

Mattias, There are companies that say they don't support older Windows versions and this either means: -the product can still be installed on older Windows versions, but it might not function properly and no support can be given or -the product won't install at all on older Windows versions. Not ev...

A new version announcement 4 months ahead of release? A progress update to say “this is what we’re working on”? Unheard of! People wanted more open communication and here it is... Maybe that should’ve been added to the feature list 🤔 Yeah, this is much appreciated - cheers Mattias! Happy to hear th...

Well, at least to me Mattias' answer is totally clear: While you can't buy directly from Reason shop (because the buy button is locked), it seems to be perfectly fine to buy a redeem code from a reseller (e.g. JRR) *now* and enter your code after release on September 1st. Then you have your upgrade...

Doesn't matter if the upgrade's bought from us or a retailer, any upgrade or full version of Reason 11 registered starting May 1st is included in the grace period :) Mattias, I sent the same question to RS support before I got your reply here. I just got the answer that the free R12 upgrade is only...

I wrote some words here, if you're a sucker for more details: https://www.reasonstudios.com/blog/announcing-reason-12 :) Mattias, given OS X El Capitan is getting long in the tooth now, I was wondering if Reason 12 will still support it or if the macOS system requirement will be higher this time ro...

I wrote some words here, if you're a sucker for more details: https://www.reasonstudios.com/blog/announcing-reason-12 :) Out of interest, are you in a position to clarify; Will the "overhauled" Combinator be a separate device? And will it be able to open existing .CMB patches? It will depend on the...

@Mattias: for the sake of clarification: If I *already* have R11 full version (and nothing else), is it still possible to buy an R11 "upgrade" and register it in order to get R12? Or shall I buy & wait, and register it after September 1st? If you already have Reason 11, you can't upgrade to Reason ...

no Suite version this time?

No, Reason Suite is discontinued. If you have Reason 11 Suite you can of course still upgrade to Reason 12 for the regular upgrade price and you keep all your REs.
