I've mentioned this before but for those who want to use vst's with reason easily use Rewire Vst.

This is the simplest way to get vsts to work in reason. If your daw allows you to convert midi to audio, do that than drag and drop the audio file right into reason. You can but rewire vst or just use the demo which is what i do. ReWire VST works as a standard VST instruments and can load all versions of Reason (32-bit and 64-bit) on PC and Mac OS X. Want to use Reason inside energyXT, MPC 1.8, Maschine or any other VST DAW/sequencer, then ReWire VST is for you. http://www.energy-xt.com/index.php?id=0115

Damn man, I wish this worked in cubase. Interestingly enough I can drag and drop MIDI. It feels like there should be a way (like elevated privileges or something) but no dice. Still, for now it's easy enough to open Reason first, then Cubase, and have the Audio folder open and ready, as that's where bounced parts show up and I can drag+drop from there. So it's only one extra mouse click!

Hey man, i found this. I hope it helps. Im not familiar with Cubase. Hope it works.



Yes ... Did have it, been able to get the Rewire VST from XT to work with cubase .


...only just found this actualy !


This little Application has great potential for Cubase users


In order


For it to work i just moved the rewire.dll back again to the C:/windows folder

so Cubase'es own rewire is not "Active"


The only problems now is the still only mono channels (in my case from rason 2.5)

Fro the console Application ,Directly into Cubase.


Could XT Rewire VST be available as stereo dll as well (to Registed users)with meter pairs 2 ,3 ,4 paired , same as the first pair. please ?


...as Ableton had stereoized its Console app years ago (from a rewired point of view)

If I understand correctly.. this could also be used not only for using VST within Reason, but also to send audio-in to Reason from a master DAW (while Reason is slaved to this master DAW) ?

Could Rewire in Cubase really be that bad? (I've never used Cubase) I honestly see no advantage of Rewire Vst over regular Rewire, but rather see it's usefulness for host programs that don't have Rewire built in.

What's the advantage over Cubase's rewire?

Oh I've used ReWire plenty - in fact there was a time when that's all I used. I only used Cubase to record audio and then did all my synths in Reason. The main reasons I don't are;

I don't like having two projects to manage - touch of laziness at work there ;)

And I would like to be able to patch devices from Reason straight into stereo channels in the Cubase mixer (like you could in the old days) so I didn't have to do a Reason sub-mix *or* spend time linking mono tracks

But I mean I'm actually happy to work primarily in Reason and then just get snippets of VST out of Cubase as audio where I need it. I love that sampling style workflow. For some reason it just sounds/feels different!

You misunderstood what I was asking. Perhaps I misunderstood your original comment as well. I thought what was being said was that you wished you could use Rewire Vst in Cubase (as opposed regular Rewire). To which I was confused how Rewire Vst had any benefit over Rewire.

*Now that I re-read it though it seems you are saying you wish you could drag audio from Cubase's sequencer into Reason. My mistake.

This is an easier way for me to use akai mpc software with reason in sync. It's just a quicker way in my opinion.

Yeah that's what I meant. MPC software doesn't have Rewire so Rewire Vst is useful in that situation. I had got confused when Cubase was mentioned because Cubase has Rewire.

It's so much easier using rewire vst. I know you know you got to setup fl studio & reason when u want them rewired. Im pretty sure that old setup hasn't changed. Its helped out Bitwig users a lot as well.

A guy named JayJoshRocstar on Youtube did a demo of this between MPC and Reason. Looks like it works pretty good.
