Store photos in my Reason session?

[jzquantum]

Apologies if this has been asked and answered before.

I would like to store photos of my outboard gear settings within my Reason project file for easy recalling. Is there a rack extension or other way to let me accomplish this? It sure would be good if those pics were inside my Reason session.

The only thing I can think of is to store a hyperlink on the Song Information splash screen, and host those pics on a photo sharing site of my choice.

If not, who wants to write an RE to do this? And while you're at that RE, how about making a simple RE for making session notes to keep track of my mixing and mastering thoughts?

You can put the pictures as combinator backdrops

And there are free note taking Res available

Cool, I'll look into those!

I use a free vst to store jpg in project but I'm not at home to see what it was called.

Cool VST. I could not get it to install on Ventura, "Installation Failed". I'll look for a similar one.

Seems like none of these VSTs are working. Wondering if the developers gave up on this idea due to no one using them?

Don’t think so. It’s the usual every-year-problem with macOS. Most of the music software is broken. Seems like this year it was a bit less of a hassle, but nevertheless. With Ventura you are on the bleeding edge side of music software and must accept that some plugins or other tools do not (yet) work. But you probably know it already - that is nothing new.

With release of Ventura I upgraded my Mac to Monterey. So I’m usually one year behind.

It works for me on Mac mini M1 on Monterey.. pretty cool...

The ultra cool thing is... you can load up another instance and it will have no screenshots in it so you can attach this "VST" to specific instruments etc.... very nice indeed.
