Launching and quitting applications

When using ReWire, the launch and quit order is very important:

Launching for normal use with ReWire

1.	First launch the host application.

2.	Then launch Reason.

Quitting a ReWire session

When you are finished, you also need to quit the applications in a special order:

1.	First quit Reason.

2.	Then quit the host application.

Launching the host application for use without Reason/ReWire

If you don’t plan to run Reason, just launch the host application as usual. We recommend that you then also deactivate all ReWire channels if required (see the relevant section for your program, below). But this is not completely critical; ReWire does not use up very much processing power when it isn’t used.

Launching Reason for use without the host application

If you want to use Reason as is, without ReWire, just launch it as you normally do.

Launching both programs without using ReWire

We don’t know exactly why you would want to run Reason and a Rewire host application at the same time on the same computer, without using ReWire, but you can:

1.	First launch Reason.

2.	Then launch the host application.

You may get a warning message in the host application, regarding ReWire, but you can safely ignore it. Please also note that the two programs now compete for system resources such as audio cards, just as when running either with other, non-ReWire, audio applications.
