KELLY SCHLIEWE  Hello,

I'm trying to import a "MIDI" file into Reason 3. For some Reason it is not letting me do the everyday task of importing from the file menu WHY IS THIS?? Maybe this is a Windows issues?

Please help a girl out

Thanks

ROTTWEILER  These are the issues fixed in the 3.0.4 update:

Export as audio file

There was an issue in Reason 3.0.3 (on Windows) that could cause weird sounds when exporting a song or loop to an audio file. This was most likely to appear when using certain Scream settings. This happened only when exporting audio as everything sounded fine when listening to Reason directly or running Reason in a ReWire host. This has now been fixed.

MIDI import

The MIDI import functionality in Reason 2.5 accepted some MIDI file data that the Reason sequencer could not handle. This could for example be bad controller data outside the sequencer timeline. Saving this bad data to a song made that song unloadable, causing a "Bad Format" alert. In Reason 3.0 we made MIDI import stricter and also changed song loading so that bad data was skipped instead of showing the alert. Unfortunately there were some problems with this handling, which we have now taken care of.

Loading old songs

Some songs produced in Reason 2.5 could not be loaded in Reason 3.0 or 3.0.3. We have addressed some issues regarding NNXT patch data created by some patch conversion utilities, where Reason 3.0 is stricter than Reason 2.5 was.

Cross-browsing

There were some situations with cross-browsing (replacing a device by loading a patch of a different device type) that caused "Unknown Exception" alerts in Reason 3.0 and 3.0.3. This has now been fixed.

Combined note handling

Sending overlapping notes from the sequencer to a Combinator that contained a Malström in Legato mode could cause hanging notes in Reason 3.0 and 3.0.3. For example, drawing two C4 notes where the second note starts before the first ends, and setting the track target to the Combinator produced different results than setting the track target to the Malström. This has now been fixed.

Missing icons in Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger)

After installing Reason 3.0.3 in Mac OS X 10.4 refills icons could change appearance and turn blank. Also all wave and aiff files were wrongly associated to Reason. Both of these issues were a result of new handling of file types in Mac OS X 10.4. This has now been fixed.

The Orkester refill as it appears on the CD will still be wrong as this error exist on the physical CD. This will be fixed in the next batch of printed CDs.

BRILDENLANCH  Here's the release notes:

"Adresses performance issues in Reason 3.0 and also adds Remote support for new controllers."

And am I the only one that can't get the file to unzip? I keep getting an error.

FREET  Quite simply this is one-stop. I've finally ditched my hardware.

ANONYMOUS  Just got Reason 3.0 last night. Damn it is such a massive update. All my criticisms of the previous version have vanished!

Main noticable improvements:

M-Class mastering suite - suddenly all those projects sound amazing.

New browser with find and preview functions - really makes finding the right sound easy - used to be a real hassle.

Interface refinements and now the windows work with command-` function properly (i.e. you don't need to click the new window)

Better support for MIDI instruments - now recognises my Edirol PCR-30 perfectly, so no more patching to get adequate controls.

Overall it feels like a much more OS X program than previously and already the songs I've made on it sound so much better.

Thanks propellerhead!

ADAM  My dad signed up as a beta tester. I've seen this update with my own eyes and ears. And I'm telling you: Keep those hopes high as can be. They will not be shot down.
