Topic: Bouncing Reason outputs

On each track where you have assigned a Reason audio output, select the “realtime recording” mode in the “bounce > bounce mode” submenu.

Use the “activate realtime record” or use Ctrl+B to toggle record mode on the track. See the popup help for the “B” button.

Enable record mode on the transport toolbar and start playback.

Once the recording is done, click the B button to toggle from bounce recording to bounce playback.

I assume you’ve verified that the track you’re bounce recording is producing audio, i.e. the meters are active. When you do the bounce recording, the recorded audio waveform will be drawn with red color overlaid on the track. Do you get the red waveform overlay?

Please recheck the steps I described in my first post. Once you have selected “realtime recording” mode, selected “activate realtime record” and enabled the transport record mode, then the “B” button on the track should be red, and two red lines (if stereo) should be drawn on the track timeline, representing the empty waveform. As soon as you start recording the waveform should render on the timeline.

If not, please email me a copy of your project file, with the track set up for realtime recording.

Thanks. The red lines don’t appear because your sample arrangement does not have any events on the timeline. The waveform extends to the end of the arrangement, so if I place e.g. a marker event at bar 37, then the red waveform extends to bar 37.

Could that be the problem with your real project file? Don’t you have any MIDI events on the timeline that plays the Reason synths?

Do I need to do the MIDI in Podium in order to be able to bounce?

No, but as a test, try to place a marker event at the time position matching the duration of your Reason song. Once you’ve placed the marker event, do you see the “B” button light up in red and the waveform lines on the timeline? Remember that you need to activate the record button on the transport as well.
