Mastering Garageband songs with Reason via Rewire

I have a LOT of songs I have created in GB, and recently purchased Reason 3.0. I would like to be able to use Reason's MClass Mastering device. What is the easiest way to do this? I have created an aff of the complete song, import it to the Reason NN-XT sampler and can play the entire song, but this is tedious. Using Rewire, can I somehow record what GB is playing into Reason instead of having to import into aif and importing to the sampler?
TIA!

I have been having some rewire issues latley with regards to the latest version of Sibelius and both Garageband, Logic and Ableton. The response I got from tech support at Sibelius is that it uses the very latst version of rewire... they claim that the other programs have not yet integrated the newest version and so there is some problems. The blame game. Perhaps this might also be true for Reason.

Logic and Reason (via Rewire) - no sound?

hey there,
I've just linked up Logic and Reason, via ReWire, and although they seem to be working visually, there is no sound.
Do I need a separate track set up so I can hear it?
I dont understand!

I'm going to try this... See if it works on your end as well!

How do you copy all tracks from one garageband song with all track settings to another existing file

I want to copy all tracks with their settings into another already existing garageband file so I can move it to my ipad. How do I do this, or is there a way at all?

Only if in iTunes on a conmputer you midify the info for that song to only list that one artist.

Logic X Recorded Midi No Playback with Reason 8 Rewire

Hi, been lookiing for a while but not found anything so had to ask.
Finally upgraded to Logic X and Reason 8. Opened up a fresh project and set up rewire channel fine through create new AUX channel on Logic Mixer, and then created new track on the sequencer. My midi keyboard played the notes fine and everything looked well. Went to record like usual but upon playback no response. The keys in the piano roll won't respond either, but my midi keys do with the signal coming through fine. Using the pencil instead to put the notes in manuallly doesn't work either, which did seem to work on a lot of similar problems.
Am sure it's a small simple problem, any help will be huge.
Kind Regards

Go to the website for the controller you are using and see if new drivers are available... You want ones that are 10.8.4 compliant (Its not about LPX it's about OS X compatibility)
So, which Midi Controller are you using?

Use method 2 to help you set up Reason and Logic.
Also you might want to upgrade from Reason 3.0 to 3.0.4.

Plug-ins not available when opening Garageband song with Logic-Pro 7.0.1

Can anyone help?
Whilst on the move recently I found myself composing a piece using Garageband. However when I got back to the studio and attempted to open the song using Logic Pro 7.0.1 I get:
Core Audio: Plug-in "BassAmpSi" not available! then
Core Audio: Plug-in "Hybrid Bas" not available!
As these must be Garageband instruments I don't understand why they're "not available" or what to do to make them available.
Any ideas?
Thanks everybody!

I googled this topic and found a Logic forum - they said you should update your software to 7.1, then the problem vanishes.

Recording via ReWire

Hi,
I'm using Logic Pro 7.1 on my PowerMac G4 1.25Ghz and 1.7RAM. What I would like to know: is it possible to record from a song I opened in Reason, via ReWire, into the sequencer window of Logic? That would be nice.. and is it edible (editable??) afterwards?
Thanks!
SImon

You can bounce the tracks or 'export tracks', but normally one would just apply whatever FX and bounce them with the main mix. (Think of a Rewire track as just another AudioInstrument track, which is actually what it is.)

TS3642 where do i find my garageband songs on windows vista itunes

I found the instructions and followed them correctly (i think) but I'm not finding my music.
To share GarageBand songs with iTunes for Windows, send the songs from GarageBand as an audio file.
I tapped the Navigation button in the control bar. Tapped the My Songs Button and then tap the Share button
Tapped Share Song via iTunes.
Sent the song as an audio file, tapped iTunes, and then tapped Share. After I tapped the iTunes icon, I choose the high quality of the file GarageBand sent to iTunes.
Synced my iphone 4 with your computer.
Selected it in iTunes. Click the Apps tab, and select GarageBand but nothing happens and I dont see my song.
Am I missing something? Can anyone tell me what to do?
Thanks

4. Connect iPhone to computer
5. Scroll down on the Apps tab for the device to find the File Sharing pane, scroll this to locate GarageBand, drag your file out to the desktop or folder of your choice.

Logic Pro 8, Reason, and Rewire

I have been trying to get redrum to record into Logic. I have it all set up correctly because I can get other instruments in Reason to work and I can get the drums to work if I manually do it with a keyboard, but I cannot get the sequencer to record.
I have been trying forever to try and figure out this problem.
I have a track in the mixer and in the actual Logic recording section. The redrum via rewire is ran through channels 3/4 and output 1/2. In the mixer, you can see the levels jumping and hear it when I run the sequence in Reason, but when I hit record, nothing records in Logic.
I feel silly because I feel like I'm only missing one small step, but I have no idea what it is and I can't get any of my drum tracks recorded. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Are you trying to record the audio output of a redrum sequence, or are you trying to record the midi notes of a redrum?
For audio, just bounce your drum loop in Reason and load into Logic as an AIFF, or run Reason via rewire, and program your midi notes for redrum through Logic, or set midi channel changes to strat and stop/ select which patter via CCs and record in Logic.
I don't think you can record the midi notes that Redrum makes with it's sequencer into Logic.
Here's a simple setup to get redrum working with Logic.
Open Logic, then open Reason
create an external midi track, in the library select Reason
In Logic, create a bus, and select the input to be Reason rewire output R/L
In Reason, make your redrum with the patch you want.
Back in Logic, select the track, and in library select the redrum.
Now notes recorded into that channel will trigger the notes of the redrum, but the audio will come into the bus you made.
Hope that helps.

Reason and rewire connection

Santa having kindly left reason 4 in my stocking this chrissie I am endeavouring to connect it up to logic express! I would like to be able to record reasons synthsetc. in logic and use reasons different EQ's, phase, compressors etc on stuff i have created in logic and this I presume is done by using rewire? Have followed the instructions on reasons web site for logic and can hear reason synths etc through logic but cannot record reasons synthsetc or send logic sound through reason yet! What does one do next please?

I don't know Reason 4 but the basic features are the same of the previous version so......
Reason (via Rewire) can receive MIDI and can send AUDIO.
So it's not possible to send audio tracks from Logic to Reason.
The things you can do are:
1. send audio from Reason to Logic to elaborate with Logic efxs;
2. send MIDI from Logic to Reason to use Logic editors;
3. bounce in Logic with, Reason audio tracks enabled, to obtain a complete mix of Logic and Reason tracks.
cheers

Is Reason 4.0.1 compatible via reWire with MainsStage

I launch MainStage first and then Reason, but ReWire mode is not showing as available. Mac OS 10.7.5

Did you go into Mainstage settings and enable rewire host support?

I have the latest version IPAD. In Garage Band I am trying to import karaoke songs purchased on itunes so that I can sing with them via garage band. In Garage Band, when I try in import a song from Itunes, nothing comes up? How do I do this...?

Make sure you understand the difference between an Audio File and a GarageBand Project File (also known as GarageBand Song File)
The + sing in the My Songs page is for opening a GarageBand Project File, either a new one or one that is copied vie the iTunes File Sharing mechanism. If I understand you right, then you want to import an Audio File from your iTunes library in a GarageBand Project and not open an existing GarageBand Project.
To import an Audio File from your iTunes Library to an existing GarageBand Project.
Make sure you sync your iTunes Library (all songs or a selection) to your iPad. This is the standard procedure so you can listen to your iTunes Library on your iPad (this step has nothing to do with GarageBand yet)
Once you are in your GarageBand Project, tap the Loop Browser icon (the ribbon) to open the Loop Browser
The misleading part here is that this window can display three tabs, not only the Apple Loops. It also displays any synced audio file via the iTunes Fle Sharing (the tab is labeled "Audio Files) and also any songs that you have synced to yoyr iPad that I just described. This tab is now called "Music".
Look at the screenshot of my previous post. The Music tab provides the same browsing capabilities (Playlists, Artist, etc) as your iTunes.
Navigate to the Kareoke Song (audio file) and drag it onto a GarageBand audio track
I explain all those details and concepts in my GarageBand book
Hope that helps

Danke, LeonieDF, I imported a Garageband song from my iPad app with all 8 tracks full, now I want to put on vocal

I imported a Garageband song from my iPad app with all 8 tracks full, now I want to put on vocal & guitar tracks but it won't let me. Also I have always problems when opening Garageband as I had an external hard drive connected to my Macbook Pro when I first downloaded it. It won't open without the external drive being plugged in. It says invalid instrument library and so on. I have tried trashing the program then reloading it nothing works; so I can't use Garageband unless the external is attached. I was also trying to send the song to Logic 8 but I can't find a video tutorial or relevant info in the manual; although I am thinking of updating Logic to the latest version. AAAGHH!!

Thank you, that's very helpful.
I was able to get this to work for deleting single song, but it simply ignored me when I tried to delete whole albums or artists. As there are many thousands of Christmas tracks, deleting one by one was not an option.
When I first started to research this I was not able to find any posts on the subject (because I did not know about the left swipe to delete gesture and so did not search for it). Now that I know I found this post which gives a number of different ways to do this:
http://forums.macrumors.com/archive/index.php/t-1276850.html
At first I tried this option:
If you are trying to batchdelete all music on an iOS device, it can be done.
1) Settings > General > Usage
2) Let the Storage settings load.
3) Click on Music...on next screen, swipe anddelete.
That does zap everything, but it suited my purposes. At first I though this was working, lots of tracks started to go back into the cloud (although this does not happen allat once, it seems to do it in the background over a period of time). The usage screen said I had free space on the iPad, but when I plugged it into iTunes the iPad showed as full and the tracks were all still listed under music.
So I tried this:
You can turn off iTunesmatch and then sync a very small number of tracks via iTunes, which shouldreplace the downloaded tracks with the synced tracks. Then turn Match back on.It's a pain but that is the only way I have found to mass delete.
Which did the trick, but is something of a nuclear option.
Looks like Apple have some work to do here. Deleting a track at a time or everything in one go is too clumsy. You need to be able to delete Albums, Artists or Genres in the sameway you can delete songs. I wish there was a way of reporting bugs like this to Apple, but short of signing up to be a developer, there does not seem to be away. If anyone reading this is a developer, perhaps you can get a paste the text into a bug report.

Logic rewired with Reason midi controller issue.

I use Logic 7.2.3 rewired with Reason and for some "reason" I can't get Reason to recognize my controller which is connected via MIDI to the Digi 003. Any ideas?

Interesting question.. Usually, variation in velocity is a desirable thing, to be able to play an instrument expressively. However, if you want to make your notes all equal velocity, an easy way to do this is with the inspector. Make sure that no regions are selected in the arrange window (so that the inspector says 'midi through'). Then adjust the 'dynamics' setting to 'off' (or whatever the actual terminology is), from that point on, anything you play on any instrument will have the velocity ignored. You can also set this kind of thing up for individual instruments, using the instrument parameter box just below the inspector.
