Ableton Forum

Hi guys
I bought a new Vista7 64bit PC and I downloaded Live Suite 8 and Reason as well and I authorized Live online and as usually in this new computer I authorize Reason 6 online everytime I want to use it.The thing is I can't make them work with rerwire.I know I do everything correctly (order of launching)and so on but Reason doesn't appear on Live.I read some posts on this forum about similar situations.Has it got to do with the fact that this a 64 bit computer(Vista 7) and Reason is 64 bit but Live is only 32 bit and then they will never work together in this system or is it something else?I read on the FAQ of the Ableton that sometimes it helps to delete or dislocate (i cant remember exactly which) "the rewire library".But I can't find it on the Ableton folder.Also I should say that I tried to install Live on the Program Files folder but even I indicated that folder as the place awhere I wanted to place Live it ended up in a folder called Program Files(x86) and I have to say if this is of any significance.Can anyone help me?

Hi Livemaster


Yep,lots of people get stuck here

Rewire is only 32bit, so you have to convert Reason into 32bit ,for rewire to work

Head over to Propellerhead site for details how to do this,(If I can find the details I have I will post them here for you)

Once you have 32 bit Reason,pop a shortcut onto your desktop to use with Ableton

As promised here is the info to convert from 64 bit to 32 bit Reason

Hi David thks a lot My problem is thus solved.Now I'm running Live rewired with Reason 32 bit.

Your very welcome Livemaster
