If you want to roll back to earlier build version with lower loading time and fewer stability issues, Reason Studios still kindly allow us to do it:

Suite version: https://www.reasonstudios.com/download/reason-suite1136

Standard version (thank you rgdaniel for the link) : https://www.reasonstudios.com/download/reason1136

Someone should probably make this a sticky or maybe Archive it to a trusted source.

What is the issue with updating to .7/.8?

I did see something mentioned on the long, long thread, but there's too much to go through to find it again.

There is no problem at all.

In preferences you will see an option to launch Companion when Reason is started. This is greyed out if you are not a Reason+ subscriber. If you are not a Reason+ subscriber, you will continue to use Authorizer for now.

This option will still be there in future versions, along with whatever bug fixes and features, and is an option that only applies to Reason+ subscribers.

.7 will install a greyed-out appendage of an online subscription service into your preferences menu, which was deliberately not mentioned in the patch notes. If you are going to ever use the subscription, then it's nothing.

I don't know why they don't just hide the Reason+ settings completely for those of us who don't need/want to see them.

thanks ... twice now I have synced racks and new racks through authorizer... it updates licence and then when you open reason again you have to licence your racks a second time... downloading the link as this is quite annoying... and if server goes down as it often does... then what? This needs to be fixed.

I'm on the previous version and running on mac but very often had this problem after buying a new RE, "having to sync more than once" however after downloading the latest version of codemeter and authoriser and using Firefox rather than safari it started to work as expected.

Meaning unless you subscribe to R+ which uses Companion or if Companion replaces Authorizer for those using perpetual licenses...

guess I will download Firefox to see if that helps... as a perpetual 11 suite owner with the latest software... it seems the only option for now.

You can still authorize your computer. The USB Ignition Key has been discontinued, which means that will no longer receive support. Which I believe only means that it may not work when you are on a newer version of an OS that doesn't support it (I think such as macOS Big Sur).

When the companion functionality allows, it will replace the authoriser for everyone. For now, companion is only for Reason+ users. My outhouse studio is almost complete, so I was looking for a clean offline build too. Version .7 onward will contain a reminder that you are 'Reason - ' and are missing a world of creative opportunity that's just a click away in a form of a greyed out Reason+ option in your preferences. That's literally what .7 version is - that greyed out option. The patch notes said "general improvements" or something like that.

According to props, the companion app will replace authorizer for everyone by version 12. It will allow offline use, but it's a shop built into the DAW, as if there weren't enough distractions. Hopefully, it will at least be snappier and more convenient than authorizer, but I would rather the latter over a built-in shop. Too bad there won't be an option. Oh well...

Companion is worlds better than Authorizer. I haven't heard anything about a built-in shop? What do you mean? It's also not built into the DAW, it is a companion app, thus the name and the option to launch it when Reason starts.

You can now install/uninstall all of your REs directly from Companion. There are currently two sync all options, one for Reason Studios REs and another separate sync all for all other REs. I'm hoping that we have more flexibility with a selective sync all, but this already a great step in the right direction.

It has a snappy real-time search function. And it also places your REs that aren't installed at the top of the list. So once you get something new, it's there at the top. It's overall a much better experience than Authorizer.

I absolutely trust you that it is better than authorizer, but it also doubles as THE SHOP. What I don't like about that is that the shop is a distraction and it shouldn't be easier to buy or download a free sound pack, than it is to change the DAW's buffer size. You see where I'm going with this?

That said, I wouldn't mind a shop tab!

As it is now for you, you are going onto the website to choose what REs to download and sync from your account...the same website that hosts the shop.
