Reason 9.5 – VST in Reason

[steveterhune]

I see no "upgrade" link. Are we to download the entire program entitled "download reason 9.5"?

Same question.

Same question.

If you have Reason 9, launch the application. There will be an automatic update prompt at the top of the window

Thank you. I actually went to my products on the Props site, then went to download 9 and it links me to 9.5.

hello guys, does someone else have issues with VST scanning ?
none of my VST's appear in reason 9.5 or in the plugin manager window...
all of them are 64bit and in the specified folder (/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST).
any ideas ?
thanks

This is what I was afraid of,ever since the inclusion of VST support was announced.I am in the process of downloading 9.5 now.I will let you know what happens on my end,once I have it installed.

Edit>Preferences>Advanced>VST Plugin Folders>Add and then point it wherever you like. You can have multiple folders. Any 64 bit plug will show up on the next restart.

Reason is absolutely no different from any other DAW in this regard (except for the restart part) - after you point Reason to all of your VST folders in Preferences, restart Reason, and it will scan your directories for all 64-bit plugins. @laperuk - if you've done this yet Reason 9.5 still doesn't show any VST available in your browser or plugin manager window, do your VST show up in any other DAW?

Hmm...after I extracted the Zip folder,I could not find the installer.Both my Reason 8 & 9 versions are in my Downloads folder,but not Reason 9.5.What did I do wrong?Did I overlook something?

Are talking about the 9.5 update or VST's? If you're talking about the 9.5 update, then you must have downloaded it to a different folder by accident. What did you use to download it? A download manager? A web browser?

If you just launch Reason 9.x, you can also download it from within Reason (though your speeds may or may not suck right now).

*EDIT - I just noticed you said "extract". My bad - were you using WinRar or WinZip to extract the file? If so, are you sure you extracted it to the folder in question? If not, extract it again and pay attention to where you're extracting it. Also, refresh your window (F5 on Windows or right-click => Refresh) to make sure your OS isn't having issues drawing it on screen.

Got 9.5 - very nice! The Props video didn't even mention the automatic delay compensation. Found the button though and it says 192. Sounds a little better already. Or maybe it's just in my head. Otherwise VST and delay comp, is anything else new?

Delay comp shouldn't make it sound any different at all (and is off by default for old projects), unless you had some phasing issues in said projects. As for everything else new:

• Added support for VST 2.4 instrument, effect and utility plug-ins
• Added Delay Compensation functionality
• Added Export Device Remote Info function to File menu, allowing you to export a text file with Remote-ables for selected device
• Updated Reason Patch Collection with minor text and bug fixes
• Improved handling of hidden displays in Rack Extensions
• Improved error reports and statistics

They released it early. shit. Works nice though, quite bug free :]

[moneykube]

had a couple crashes (3)first time it read vst plugs... but it continued on after I reopened... once scanned all seems good... perhaps 3 bad plugs

Propellhead should make the logging version of the beta a torrent.
Propellerhead, make the logging version of reason beta the front page free download.

yes i'm afraid it's a reason bug, because all my plugins appear perfectly on my others DAW, all of them in 64bits of course.
i'll check if there's a way to contact PH, because i really don't know what to do...

[Data_Shrine]

Wow I have so many VST that I forgot about and never even used in Ableton. (X)_(X) Time to do some cleanup

ok guys, i just "fixed" the problem, i mean not really but for all of you who might have the same issue, here's what i did :
i just created a new folder called "plugs for reason" and i copied all my 64bits VST in it. then i pointed it in the reason preferences, restart and it worked. this doesn't explain why reason was unable to scan them in my main VST folder, but it works.
thanks to those who try to help, have a nice day, cheers from France.

When I heard of the VST update I was a naysayer....after downloading, installing, finding the few VST's I have,....reason performed flawlessly using a normal amount of processing power.

I WAS WRONG.

Great Job Props

Adam,

I kinda felt the same way. There was a small part of me that always wanted a better way to get my favorite drum sounds in Reason but I just didn't like working in other DAW's...at all. So I put music to the side for about 3 years while raising two kids. Now that I have the best of both worlds, and have been playing around for a few hours, I feel more inspired than I have in a long, long time. I have ideas just flowing right now.

It is amazing what having the tools you want to use, in the DAW you want to work in, does for creativity.

Sounds like a possible folder permissions problem with your OS.

It is interesting how no other DAW I've used has ever quite inspired me the same way as Reason. Studio One, even with its sensible UI, still feels fiddly next to Reason. Even Ableton, which I like a lot about for improvisation, just doesn't spur songwriting the same way. Having VST in Reason feels like when I first got Reason all over again.
