Sound and Patch Search Paths
Reason songs and patches can contain references to other files on your hard
disk, such as samples. To keep track of all files, Reason makes use of a “da-
tabase”. If you keep your Reason files within the database, Reason can up-
date file paths, automatically search for missing files, etc.
This database consists of up to four different folders on disk (and all their
subfolders). You specify which folders to use as database in the following
way:
1. Click the “1” folder button below the heading “Sound and Patch
Search Paths”.
A file dialog appears.
2. Navigate to the desired folder and select it.
You can select a folder on any drive (including mapped network drives
under Windows).
3. Click OK.
The folder is added as the first search path in the database.
4. If you like, specify search path 2 to 4 in the same way.
It is normally enough to specify a single path, since all underlying folders
are automatically included in the database. Use the additional paths if
you use more than one hard drive, CD-ROM drives etc.
When you add sound files or save Reason files, you should place them
within the database (under one of the specified search path folders).
