The current behaviour snaps to the grid line closest to the clicked point. What you would prefer is that it should always snap to the grid line to the left of the clicked point. In other words, I’m trying to click grid lines, while you’re trying to click the space between grid lines. I guess there are pros and cons for both these behaviours.

The snap position is shown in the toolbar mouse cursor display field. If you turn of snapping, then you’ll see the mouse position displayed as -50% to +50% around the closest grid line. If it should work like you preferred, then this display should show the grid position left of the mouse cursor and show percentages from 0% to 100% instead.

I would like to hear other users opinion on this. If the majority of users think the snapping to grid line instead of snapping to grid space is weird, then I don’t mind changing the snap behaviour.

Yes, I offten change the instruments and effects in Reason and than have to looking for it on the list. It will be usefull for me if the sort function will be “switchable” and works permanently after switching it.

The “sort alphabetically” is a command that is performed once. It is not a “mode” which will reshuffle the list automatically each time the name of an object changes.

And one more problem… changing the instrument preset in Reason can cause change device type… say from NN-XT to any COMBINATOR type of instrument, just by changing a preset. Than I have to manualy change a MIDI track destination in Podium because NN-XT no more exist and Podium do not switch output of its MIDI track to new instrument in Reason automatically. Is it possible Podium konnekt automatically new device?

The list is created based on a MIDI target number and bus number. When I tested with Reason I did not find an obvious logic behind the numbering, so it will not be easy to try to make automatic mapping reassignments based on these numbers.

Note that the ReWire MIDI device list will be updated each time you change the devices in the Reason application, which can cause the list to become “unsorted” again.

No, still the same problem. Note that the syncing only messes up when plugins are on the mastertrack. If i remove the plugins on the master everything works fine.

If you try to set the ASIO buffer size to the max available for your driver (larger than 100 ms), my guess is you will still notice the sync problem even without plugins on the master. It can be difficult to hear with a reverb effect. I still suspect you have some sort of feedback issue.

I have routed output 1 and 2 of my interface to the analog inputs on the V-verb and the analog-outs of the V-verb are connected to analog input 1 and 2. The optical out on my interface is connected to the optical in on the V-verb and the optical out of the V-verb is connected to the optical in on my interface (a Terratec Phase x24 Firewire). The Terratec is clocked externally to the V-verb and the output chosen on the mastertrack is now 3 and 4, which are the outputs my monitors are connected to.

Sounds ok. If you send me the project file again I’ll check that the setup is ok. If your soundcard comes with a mixer control panel, please check that it is not set to mix the analog output on 1+2 into the 3+4 output that you use for monitoring. That is the case with e.g. my RME interface, where by default all outputs are being submixed into the phones output.

Edit: I have discovered this does only happen with certain plugins.

Messy: Nebula, Voxengo Polysquasher, Wavearts Trackplug 5
Everything ok: Voxengo’s Marquis, delamancha’s bathtub, Voxengo’s Soniformer2.

I’m guessing all the “messy” plugins have a long latency. You can check the latency with the “Latency” control in the mixer.
