REASON crashing DP9.1

Post by happymoogman »

Arrrrg. Frustation. I upgraded to El Capitan, which forced me to upgrade to DP9.1. This forced upgrades of several other critical pieces of my music software, particularly REASON 8.3. I got Kontakt to work now, but REASON refuses to work at all. It loads okay, but when I plunk a key on my MIDI keyboard, it crashes DP. Anyone else experience this, and anyone have any suggestions?

I can use the keyboard on any other piece of software except REASON...

I upgraded my audio interface (Saffire), too... I'm on a 64-bit system, BTW.

Digital Performer 9.1
Reason 8.3.2
Focusrite Saffire PRO-24 DSP Audio Interface

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013)
3.2 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
OSX El Capitan, 10.11.1
Apple 27" iMac Intel Core i7 2.93GHz, 4GB RAM, 1TB Hard Drive, ATI Radeon HD 5750, SuperDrive, TA, DP9, El Capitan, Reason, Ivory, samplemodeling, Kontact, Kirk Hunter Diamond Symphony, REAL analog modular synth!

Hi Everyone,

I seemed to have solved this problem, by taking out a lot of files that were in the folder of my old version of REASON. They didn't mind being in there, in the past, but this turned out to be the issue.... Files moved out - problem solved.

Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know. It might help others with a similar issue.

The way that OS 10.11 wants to sandbox apps, this is not a surprise.



Did I really use sandbox as a verb? Oh my. . . :oops:
