Yeah, I'm tired of trying to find some of these links when I need them.
I think I already did sticky it.

If you are using Chrome browser, you might need to right click and "copy link address" then paste that address into a new tab.

Thanks! Added the manuals to the master list above.

Thanks for replying! this is shocking. i feel like i felt something has been wrong. I assume this is only noticeable with the delay compensation on?


what about your buffer latency? It seems a bit high, no? I normally do 256 and get very little latency.

You might want to add direct links to Elements free downloads, currently available ones are 0.4.11 unless you want to build your own or purchase the latest
https://github.com/kushview/Element/rel ... 0.41.1.dmg
https://github.com/kushview/Element/rel ... 0.41.1.exe

If you go to
https://github.com/kushview/Element/releases/

And look through the assets you can access the pre built version but they are always behind the paid version :thumbs_up:

Which soundbanks can be downloaded, for Reason 10.x ?
And Reason 10 is the version that still had ReWire right?

( It has been a while, i actually forgot! )

It appears that if there is an update you have to download the whole package instead of a recent update from the site.

re: (without the latency issue)

Sorry to pile on here, but did RS ever acknowledge this? Now I'm curious. While it's not vocals, I've tracked a Montage 7 in Reason 11.3.9 and had zero problems. I actually find it requires the least amount of manual offset of the DAW's I've tested (Studio68c --> external input). Reaper was all over with ReaInsert. Who even tracks external hardware @ 2048? Seems absurd / moot, lol.

Point being, everyone's hardware has *some* latency regardless of driver reported latency that automatic compensation leverages. You're job is to find out how much based on your system specs. All I had to do was track a 4ms manual offset (64/128 samples) with "External" monitoring in preferences (which if I recall is required to effect manual comp correctly). It's tighter than a gnat's ass. You have to leverage at least a bar lead time to let the clock on the Montage sync up, but that's inherent to the clock of the unit (few synths can dead pull a sync'd clock).

I always figured anyone serious about their hardware tracking always dialed in manual settings for best results because when you zoom in you'll always see they're off a small amount with auto-compensation (enough for my standards in all DAW cases). Loopback test provided a good starting point for my offset.

Ahh, this is the visual PDC issue I spoke about in a recent topic of mine here, where I asked for workarounds, so at one point reason studios DID have it working properly like other DAWs? Interesting.

See how the playhead already passed the audio before any sound was heard.

This is why I can't currently use Reason as a full time dedicated DAW, as I am a heavy UAD user and it would drive me insane (all UAD DSP adds latency, every instance).

Hence why I am using the wonderful Reason players and included synths and RE's as a plugin inside Pro Tools.

Ableton has the same issue. It's such an easy fix but they are too stubborn. Hopefully RS decides to fix it.

All other DAWs that I know of that have native latency compensation behave properly now. Only Reason and Ableton behave like this.
Mac Studio M2 Ultra/64Gb/Apollo T-Bolt 3/OS 14.6.1/PT 2024.6/R13.02/Logic 11.01
MSI GT77/13980HX/RTX 4090m/64GB/Arturia Minifuse 2/PT 2024.6/R13.02/Low DPC latency tuned
