What odd behaviour! No setting for this and I have Reason 11 and 12+ installed!

I know you can select any DAW from the drop down, but surely as its a Reason App it should default to Reason!! Why Default to Bitwig?, its not even first on the list!

Reason was default have you opened a patch in BitWig? Maybe it remembers your last choice...

I opened the rack once in Bitwig weeks ago but I99% of the time I open patches in Reason, I opened them last in Reason and most often...I cant cant see any way to set a default either which seems odd.

It's no biggy, just really odd for Reason to do this.

I think it should say "if you must" beside every choice apart from Reason that should have a smiley face :D

Mystery Solved! It is in 'Getting Started' then 'Where do you plan to use Reason' - I guess I must have picked Bitwig at some point when I downloaded Reason+ when it very first came out (remembered setting?) - just put it on again with the 3$ offer....
