frequently asked questions

What happens to my songs if I cancel my subscription?

Your project files remain safe, but Reason Rack Plugin will no longer render audio until you renew. We recommend bouncing your Reason tracks to audio (stems) if you plan to pause your subscription.

Do I need to be online to make music?

You only need to be online once every 30 days to verify the license. You can produce on a plane, on a mountain, or in a remote cabin without issues.

The Reason Rack looks complicated. Is it hard to learn?

Only if you want it to be. You can use Reason just like any other plugin: load a preset and tweak the knobs on the front. You never have to flip the rack or touch a cable unless you want to dive deep into sound design.

Can I use this on multiple computers?

Yes. You can install the Reason Rack on multiple machines (e.g., your studio desktop and your travel laptop). Just log in to your account to authorize the device you are currently using.

Can I just buy Reason outright instead of subscribing?

Yes. We will never force you into a subscription. You can buy the Reason 14 perpetual license in our shop. However, please note that the Reason+ Yearly Plan is the only way to unlock the integrated LANDR AI mastering, unlimited distribution, and the $1,500 bonus of 16 perpetual partner plugins.
