As many of you know by now, that took some time. We eventually came to the conclusion that to fix the problem, we had to essentially rewrite big parts of Reason’s audio rendering code. However, after a while we also started getting feedback about “poor and erratic” performance when using some of your favorite VST plugins. When VST support was first added in Reason 9.5, we received a lot of great feedback: “finally, VSTs in Reason”. And as a nice bonus, it improves performance if you’re not using VSTs too! Read on for the details… I’m happy to finally announce that the beta testing of Reason 10.3 is here! As you might know, this upcoming free update for Reason 10 is all about improving Reason’s VST plugin performance. You can read the complete statement from Reason Product Manager Mattias Häggström Gerdt below: See the Propellerhead site for details.Propellerhead has announced that Reason 10.3 is now in beta, a free update for Reason 10 that is geared toward improving VST plugin performance within the DAW. Now, with larger buffer sizes you might hear a difference when controlling a VST parameter or hear a delay when creating a feedback loop.įor full compatibility with older songs, you can either bring the buffer size down to 64 samples or untick the new option in the preferences. In Reason 10.2 and earlier, the buffer size was fixed at 64 samples and thus had almost no noticeable delay. This is also true for any feedback connection, for example sending a signal out of a device and then back in to the same device. When automating or CV controlling parameters in a VST, it will use the same resolution as the buffer size. Note: Some things might sound different with these rendering changes. Users should also see performance improvements when using Rack Extensions and internal devices. Propellerhead says that they’ve seen we’ve seen improvements from 10% to over 200%, when using a buffer size of 512 samples. This lets your computer handle more VST plugins before experiencing issues (like clicking and popping) on buffer sizes higher than 64 samples.ĭepending on the plugins used, the improvements you’ll see can vary a lot. There’s now a setting in Reason’s audio preference to “Render audio using audio card buffer size setting” that is on by default. Reason 10.3 is described as a “performance update”, and optimizes how it works with VST plugins. Propellerhead has released Reason 10.3, an update to their virtual studio and DAW.
