What version of Live still works with Rewire/Reason?

To my knowledge, Ableton has worked as a master to reason in the Rewire slave mode. I recently bought Ableton Live 7 LE, not thinking they would change this option. Now I've spent $120 on software that doesn't do exactly what I want, to integrate them. Is there a version I can obtain at a equal or lesser price that will work with Reason? Or a way I can use them together seamlessly without Rewire?

frustrated and broke

NRVSX, unfortunately you should have looked at the Live LE specs prior to making your purchase. Live LE does not support Rewire.

Yes, I know I should have looked at it.... but I didn't, I looking for advice to find something that will work with Rewire. I'd appreciate if my mistake wasn't re-iterated. I know I made a mistake, I'm looking for help.

My apologies, I meant no offense.

No worries, I'm just pissed and frustrated that I bought a software that doesn't integrate. So, is there a version of Live that is reasonably priced that does work with Rewire?

If you're a student, check out the educational pricing and updating to full version of Live with student price. It's much cheaper than the full version.

Will Live lite work as Rewire host?

I'm not a student, so there goes that idea.

Does Live Lite use Rewire? I have a 5.2.2 version, does that work. I know 7 LE doesn't work but will Lite 5.2.2 or Lite 7(if I upgrade)?
