Despite having the latest, can you enjoy going back a bit in time?

I'm looking at my old 2003 Mac G5 with Reason 4 and Logic 8. The plan is setting it up today and really connecting stuff to it. AMT8 & all my vintage digital synths will find a home.

It's fun and relaxing having to (nor being able) to constantly think of which updates to get. Came to think of I will install the even older Reason versions too if not just to re-experience. :-)

Absolutely. Awhile back, I was able to get Reason 1.01 on Windows 10... Had to insert the CD-ROM. Good memories.

I’ve been nostalgic for Re-Birth recently. Sure there are rack extensions and Roland Cloud, but there was something cool about that app and the limitations that just fuelled creativity and exploration.

I was going to install a few but it wasn't too easy these days & running several versions means you have to re-verify the discs over and over... I will try to find a solution lol.
