Show Parameter Value Tool Tip

Normally, if you hold the mouse pointer over a parameter on a device panel for a

moment, a Tool Tip appears displaying the name and the current value of the pa-

rameter. If you uncheck this option, Tool Tips will not be displayed.

Show Automation Indication

If a parameter is automated in the sequencer, this is, by default, indicated by a

colored square around the parameter on the device panel. If you uncheck this

option, automation will not be indicated.

Default Song

Every time you start Reason, and every time you select “New” from the File

menu, a default song opens. The “standard” default song contains a few select

devices.

This section lets you decide exactly what you want the default song to look like,

by using the radio buttons to the left:

• Empty Rack - This is an empty rack. Well, almost empty, since it contains the

Reason hardware interface.

• Built In - This is a built-in Reason Song, containing a few devices. Note that

it is not possible to open this song by regular means - via the browser - since

it is not an “independent”.rns-file, and thus does not reside anywhere in the

Reason folder.

• Custom - This allows you to select a custom default song. Any Reason song

can be used, so if you often create songs using the same or similar device

setups, you can use a previously created song as the default song. This way,

all new songs you create will have the same device setup.

To customize the contents of new songs, proceed as follows:

1. Select New from the File menu to create a new song document win-

dow.

2. Add/remove devices and make settings as desired.

Typically, you may want the default song to contain your choice of devices

and possibly some patterns. You could also make some special routing be-

tween devices, or even add some sequencer data.

3. Save the song anywhere you like (preferably in the Reason program

folder though) and under any name.

4. Pull down the Edit menu and open the Preferences dialog.

5. Go to the General page, and under “Default Song” click the radio

button marked “Custom”.

6. Click the browser button to the right in the dialog, navigate to the

song you saved earlier and click “Open”.

The name of the song appears in the textbox in the dialog.

7. Close the Preferences dialog.

The next time you launch the program or select New from the File menu, the

new song document will contain the devices and settings you made.

CPU Usage Limit

Reason is a powerful program but also demanding in terms of processing

power. The more devices you add to your rack, the more of your computer’s re-

sources it will use.

Furthermore, as you use more and more of your computer resources for creating

audio, less will be available for the user interface, resulting in slower perfor-

mance in terms of graphics and overall responsiveness.

The CPU Usage Limit setting allows you to set a limit on how much of the CPU

(computer processor) that can be used for creating audio. The remaining capac-

ity is reserved for the user interface and the graphics.

Set this so that you feel comfortable using the program, even when a very de-

manding song document is played back.

Use High Resolution Samples

Reason has the capability to play back samples with practically any resolution.

This means that if for instance 24-bit samples are loaded in a sampler or the Re-

drum, playback of the samples can be in 24-bit resolution as well. If you are us-

ing such samples and want Reason to play them back in their original high

resolution, make sure that this checkbox is ticked.

If this is activated, and if your audio card supports it, Reason will play back high

resolution samples in their original resolution. If this option is not activated, Rea-

son will play back all samples in 16-bit resolution, regardless of their original res-

olution.
