I guess I don’t have it as bad as I thought with Reason / Pro Tools. I can launch Reason via the rewire plugin via Pro Tools however my audio engine hangs after about 20 seconds of recording, sometimes faster.

It’s basically worthless but gives the impression that it wants to work…

Reason through rewire, no matter how much we all try, does not seem to be working!

I have scoured the internet back to front as well as spent ridiculous amounts of time with talented engineers who also have no idea or way to fix this problem.

Holding tight is something, unfotunately, I think we are going to have to do.

Any sign of a change or anyone who has any information Re: when this will/could possibly be fixed…. KEEP US UPDATED!!

arggh. i have a love hate relationship with technology!!!

I’m also getting hung while Pro Tools tries to load DigiReWire, despite the fact that I just downloaded and installed the latest version of ReWire from Propellerhead. Irritating. If anyone figures out how to resolve this problem, please share your solution.

I too have total hanging with DigiRewire turning out to be the culprit
I contacted Digi a few times over it and was told to take out DigiRewire plugin for now!
This is a fat lot of good to me as I use PT with Reason all the time and need to work on paid jobs with this combo so I can produce stuff!
The thought of going back to 10.4.x and PT 7.4
will play merry hell with my single computer setup but until Digi has a fix this looks like the only option
I only went for the ‘leap’ to PT 7.4.2 and Leopard 10.5.3 as Digi convinced me that the new release had been well tested - arrrfghfghff!!!

I’m having the same problem with 7.4.2 hanging while loading Rewire under Leopard. Terribly unfortunate. At the moment I have a dual-booting system, but it would be nice to move over to Leopard entirely. Is there any solution to this except wait for a fix from Digidesign?

I was also impatient, bought the 7.3 to 7.4 upgrade and installed Leopard. After doing the upgrade, Pro Tools is stuck beach-balling on the load screen (when rewire loads–I recall that being a problem people noticed before the pre-release). Grrrr… I’m about uninstall/reinstall Pro Tools and see if that helps.

Don’t know why there is all this caution. I’ve been running ProTools on my MacPro since the end of Feb. It has worked fine.

This pre-release version works even better.

Digi deserves credit for the graphic in this case.
