RRP Lite for FREE on Plugin Boutique

[DaveyG]

That's astonishing, because I imagine you can't have both installed at once! So you choose 11.2

I installed both.
First I installed 11.3.1 Lite.
Then I deleted the Reason Lite 11 program folder (c: \ Program Files \ Propellerhead \ Reason Lite 11 \).
Then installed 11.2.1 Lite.

Now I have 11.2.1 Lite as a DAW, and 11.3.1 Lite as a rack plugin.

Brilliant! So does 11.2 keep prompting you to upgrade to 11.3 or have they suppressed that? I keep imagining some poor bugger who unwittingly "upgrades" and can't open his songs anymore.

I now have a R11. 3.1 license but would love to be able to do the 11.2 trick above. Do you think I'll be able to install 11.2 with an 11.3 license?

Yes

Excellent

Aah, so the PB FREE version is not the Reason11 Intro, but something different (but still Reason11 so it can be used as a rack)?
Did I get it right now? It is a bit confusing...

the PB Version is called "Lite" .
( edit again : the "new" version from 11.3 Lite (and up) is usable as a VST, but the versions before (11.2 and down) are not usable as a VST )
(( yeah, is friggin chaos ))

"Intro" is another version.

"Standard" is another version.

"Suite" is like standard, just with a bunch of added Rack Extensions.
(edit: although the install looks a bit different, there is no addition besides the Rack Extensions. )

Is the authorization of PB ReasonLite 11.3.1 <online only>?

[MrFigg]

I know I could just load it up and answer my own question but wondered if anyone knows.
I’ve got Reason Lite 10. What does Lite 11.2 have that Lite 10 doesn’t.
I’m not talking about the RRP (11.3)
Thanks.

Looking at the manual, it's the same devices but you get the new DAW features like curved automation, crossfades and note muting.

Thanks man. That’s what I suspected. Appreciated.

got the plug-in boutique deal but GarageBand freezes on Downloading License Data after I type in my password, so something might be wrong here

As far as I know, GarageBand is not officially supported. At least REs don't work, from what I remember.

thanks Joey. Very very sad about this. But I am so glad it works in Logic.

Any chance of explaining this to me so I can understand properly. If I want to have the 11.2 Lite DAW do I need to have the 11.2 Lite installer or can I install the free PB RRP 11.3 and revert back to 11.2? I’m n it really getting how to do this. Thanks.

This is exactly how I did it:

Having both the 11.3.1 and 11.2 installers.

1. Install 11.3.1
2. Then without deleting anything (I didn't need to) Install 11.2 from the 11.2 installer.

Result: You'll have the 11.3 RRP and the 11.2 DAW.

That’s the thing. I don’t have the 11.2 installer. Can I get that from RS when I register 11.3?

Hold on, did you just inception Reason Lite so that you can get the best of 11.2.1 and 11.3.1

Brilliant!

It's comical to me as someone who owns these devices for so many years that with R10 installed with the lite plug-in I cannot use basic stock instruments I've already paid for. Laughable. My solution for this rather than downgrade the lite plug-in as discussed here will simply be to not use Europa, Thor, KONG, and whatever else has been carelessly removed. I have enough RE's and sounds I can just stay in the Logic environment be happy without those old instruments.

You're confusing versions here. Reason Lite and the Lite RRP are simply that—the Lite version. What you're saying is the equivalent of upgrading from Reason 10 standard to Reason 11 Lite or Intro and expecting to access all the devices in the Lite or Intro version. It's never worked that way. If you want the full version of the RRP, you get the full version upgrade.
