INSTALLATION

Installing the Software

Now it’s time to install the actual Reason software:

1. Insert the Reason CD labeled “Program Disc” into your CD-ROM

drive.

2. On the CD-ROM, locate the file called “Install Reason” and double

click on it.

3. Follow the instructions on screen.

4. During the installation, you will be asked whether you want to install

the “Reason Factory Sound Bank” or not.

This is a large (roughly 500 MegaByte) file containing patches, samples

and loops.

➜

If you choose to install the sound bank, you will be asked to insert

the Reason CD labeled “Factory Sound Bank”.

Again, follow the instructions on screen.

➜

If you choose not to install the sound bank, you will need to have

the “Factory Sound Bank” CD in the drive each time you run the

program.

You can copy the factory sound bank file to your hard disk later if you

wish (see page 10).

Now, the Reason files have been installed in a folder on your hard disk. Un-

der Windows, all Reason related items have also been added to the Start

menu and possibly you will have a Reason shortcut on the Desktop

5. Check for any ReadMe files in the Reason folder or on the Start

menu, and open and read these.

ReadMe files may contain important last minute information that didn’t

make it into this manual.

6. If you are using a Macintosh with audio hardware for which there is

an ASIO driver, copy the ASIO driver into the folder “ASIO Drivers”

within the Reason program folder.

This makes the ASIO driver available to Reason.

7. If you chose

not

to install the factory sound bank on your hard disk,

insert the “Factory Sound Bank” CD in your CD-ROM drive.

8. Launch the program by double clicking the Reason icon (or by se-

lecting the Reason item from the Start menu).

9. Fill in the authorization form that appears.

Your authorization code can be found on the product authorization card

included in the package.

At this point a dialog appears, asking you whether you want to register your

copy of the program at the Propellerhead web site. Registering gives you im-

mediate access to various benefits such as free, extra sounds for Reason!

You must have a working Internet connection to be able to register

on-line.

➜

If you click the Register Now button, your Internet browser will

launch and take you to the registration page on the Propellerhead

web site.

Follow the instructions on the web page. After finishing the registration,

click the Continue button in the installation dialog.

➜

If you don’t want to register at this point, click the Later button.

You can register at any time by selecting Product Registration from the

Contact menu (Mac) or Help menu (Windows) in Reason (or by going to

www.propellerhead.se/register).

This completes the installation! Since this is the first time you run Reason,

the Preferences dialog appears. Before you can use the program, you need

to make some settings. This is described in the next chapter.

The Factory Sound Bank

The Reason factory sound bank consists of one large file. This file contains a

large number of patches, samples and loops, serving as your main supply of

sounds (much like the sound ROM in a synthesizer). The program checks for

the existence and integrity of this file when you perform actions such as

opening, closing and saving. This means that you have two choices:

➜

Install the factory sound bank on your hard disk when you install

Reason.

This requires approximately 500 MB hard disk space. This is the recom-

mended option, since you will most likely be using the factory sound bank

a lot and access is quicker from the hard disk than from the CD-ROM

drive.

➜

Run Reason with the Factory Sound Bank CD in the CD-ROM drive

of the computer.

This method is suitable if you are short on hard disk space, if you are run-

ning Reason “temporarily” on another computer, etc.

Even if you didn’t install the factory sound bank when you installed Reason,

you can do this at a later stage if you like: simply copy the file “Factory Sound

Bank.rfl” from the Reason Factory Sound Bank CD to the Reason program

folder.
