Reason 12.2.5 Released

[kb420]

Well, this may not seem like a big deal to many, but this is the FIRST update for Reason 12 that installed smoothly with no issues. So far, all of the other updates for Reason 12 would give me a bunch of errors on the install which then forced me to uninstall the entire program, reboot my pc, and do a clean install of the newest version. This install was completely smooth with no issues at all. Kudos to Reason Studios for that!!!! I'm impressed.

I'm happy for the controller fix. On my nektar p4 the readrum sequencer works again (but sounds are not map to the drum pads of p4?)
But in Thor Sequencer it seems the bug isn't fixed. I do must select and deselect the buttons for the first time.

Puh, that was hard work to get the controller issue "fixed". Had to communicate with loads of people to get them in the right direction. It is nearly fixed and as good as it can get i guess. Buttons work again. Only some controls with a low number of values (eg a filtertype selector) can cause troubles if the codec relies on exact values because of the new scaling. Codecs that rely on fixed values (there shouldnt be alot of codecs that do that) might need a new "calibration" of values but at least all buttons work again correctly - as far as i can tell after the first tests.

Ohhh I'm sorry. I'm so happy for this stage. The readrum fix is a goldmine. The rest is a nice to have. Fine that the p4 works much more better than in the last year... Thanks for your work

Worked some very long sessions with it, definitely the smoothest it's been so far. Felt like being on R11 again.

the main bugs my end still aren't getting addressed. Like crashing Mimic with large files

Would that be the "Mimic Long Sample Bug" you reported to Tech Support some time ago?

Why, yes! It would!
If fact I think it might be more to do w file size.
Have you got good news?!!!

He told me via PM that everything is going amazingly well and that after they sort out all the hi res junk, M1, and VST3 they're planning a point update wherein they're planning to overhaul the sequencer! Markers, zoom, you name it! They're even integrating all the various stretch algorithms INCLUDING TAPE STRETCH into the sequencer!!! And of course the Mimic fix.

But I think he was just kidding.
I certainly am.

Why not? It sounds very convincing.

Well, because I was actually kidding.

Absolutely. They told me back at R10 that they’d fix the browser fold bug. And you know what? They did it.

‍♂️ woohoo!!!

Good one!

Based on this thread it seems that I'm having an opposite experience than most with this update. The previous version was working quite well for me (12.2.4) despite an annoying and persisting bug in the RRP that I'm hoping it gets fixed some day.

Now Europa, Expanse, Complex-1 and other devices (Stock/RE) lack visual elements, from waveforms to filters and envelopes.
On the back of the rack while moving a cable its width intermittently changes from normal to a very "skinny" version, and some cables just remain skinny after being connected.

This update made the software unusable for me, so I will probably revert back to the previous version. I generally update within reason because it's faster and has a smaller download size, but I also tried to uninstall and install the full version and cleaning the graphics cache to no avail.

This is my first post. I've been following this forum for a while, and It seemed it was time for me to create an account and post this, even if just to vent.

2 bugs I have not seen before when using 12.4.x:


BUG REPORT: Right clicking on a sample and then not selecting anything from the menu by clicking off onto the sequencer behind, gives an error.

I think this is a good update, happy to work in R12 now. 2 bugs I found. One as Tinnitus said above. Second when move the view of the mixer channels horizontally (mixer on another monitor) - before update grafics were slow and sluggish on mixer but now it's good and accurate but move view is problematic, not working correct - but it's ok when sliding with combination Shift + mouse wheel.

Do you have "Options / Reduce Cable Clutter" enabled?

[jack type]

I hadn't that option enabled, but the difference is that instead of just dimming the cables as per usual now they simply disappear. Reason is probably making the anomalous 1px wide cables even skinnier.

This would be interesting to have a closer look at. Are you a beta tester, or have you reported this to our Tech Support?
Would be a help if you reported this as a bug in the beta program, that way it will have a faster lane to our devs.

This goes for anyone who finds bug in Reason 12.2.5.

Thanks!

[challism]

I tested those devices inthe latest update and cant reproduce it. Definitely contact support and open a ticket. They may need you to send them the Reason log files.

[mimidancer]

I have never before now experienced any issues with reason. Now I get "unknown exception" all the time. Though I am a proficient user I have no idea what this means or how to fix it. FML.
