Installation

About the Audio

Hardware

The audio hardware is the computer equipment that converts the digital signals

from Reason to analog audio signals (for connection to an amplifier, head-

phones, or similar). This equipment could be a standard stereo sound card, the

built-in audio hardware on a Macintosh or some more advanced audio card with

several inputs and outputs, digital connectors, etc. Regardless of which, you

need to make sure the hardware and its drivers are properly installed:

Mac OS X

If you are using the built-in audio hardware of the Macintosh

In this case you don’t need to make any extra settings. Just connect the audio

output to your listening equipment (speakers, mixer, headphones or similar) and

make sure your Mac plays audio properly.

If you are using other audio hardware

You may want to use other audio hardware with Reason (e.g. an audio card with

multiple outputs, digital connections, etc.). For this to be possible, the audio

hardware must be compatible with Mac OS X, that is, there must be a Mac OS

X driver available for the card.

2. Install the audio hardware and its drivers as described in its docu-

mentation.

3. Connect the stereo outputs of your audio hardware to your listening

equipment (speakers, mixer, headphones or similar).

For info about how to use multiple outputs (i.e. more than a stereo output),

see the electronic documentation. For now, we stick to standard stereo con-

nections.

4. If possible, test that audio plays back OK with the audio hardware.

With some audio hardware, a test application is supplied for this purpose.

Mac OS 9

If you are using the built-in audio hardware of the Macintosh

In this case you don’t need to make any extra settings. Just connect the audio

output to your listening equipment (speakers, mixer, headphones or similar) and

make sure your Mac plays audio properly, e.g. by testing the alert sounds in the

Sound control panel (or the “Monitors and Sound” control panel, depending on

the Mac OS version).

If you are using other audio hardware

You may want to use other audio hardware with Reason (e.g. an audio card with

multiple outputs, digital connections, etc.). For this to be possible, the audio

hardware must be compatible with the ASIO standard. That is, it must have an

ASIO driver, a piece of software that allows Reason to communicate with the

card.

1. Make sure you have the latest drivers for the audio hardware!

Please check the manufacturer’s web site for the latest versions.

2. Install the audio hardware and its low level drivers as described in

its documentation.

3. Connect the stereo outputs of your audio hardware to your listening

equipment (speakers, mixer, headphones or similar).

For info about how to use multiple outputs (i.e. more than a stereo output),

see the electronic documentation. For now, we stick to standard stereo con-

nections.

4. If possible, test that audio plays back OK with the audio hardware.

With some audio hardware, a test application is supplied for this purpose.

5. Locate the ASIO driver for the hardware.

After installing Reason, you will need to copy this into Reason’s ASIO driver

folder (see page 10).

Some Macintosh audio hardware comes with a Sound Manager

driver (i.e. without an ASIO driver). However, we recommend using

ASIO compatible audio hardware only.
