UPDATE: This is now fixed! If anyone else is ever having similar problems, make sure Reason is allowed to use the computer's microphone (you can check this in macOS Security & Privacy settings).

Hi all,

Very weird new issue, all of a sudden I can't seem to get any audio into Reason at all! My interface is a Scarlett 6i6 which is working fine with both Live and Logic. It appears as an audio device in Reason preferences and I can enable the correct ins and outs, but when I set up an audio track and choose one of the inputs there is no sound at all? I can hardware monitor via the Scarlett MixControl software and record in other DAWs so I know the cables and connections are fine, it's just like Reason has suddenly gone deaf! Anyone else experienced this at all? Version 11.3 on macOS Mojave, 2015 MacBook Pro.

Cheers,

Dan

Apologies but just bumping this as I'm still having this issue, even after reinstalling. Anyone got any ideas?

How many active input channels does the audio references dialog show? If you click on the [Channels...] button can you choose any?

Thank you for your reply! I should have updated the post but I actually figured it out... For some reason (possibly after the latest Reason update), macOS decided to block Reason from using the microphone (in the Security & Privacy settings), causing Reason to behave normally but not allowing any audio in at all. Just had to re-enable it and all was fixed. I'll leave this thread here in case it happens to anyone else!
