Bitwig 2 Reason ReWired (The Second Coming)

[xbitz]

so this time we've got much better connection devices with buttons and knobs,

installing process:
- need Bitwig 2, Reason, demo version of ReWire VST(64bit for Reason 6+, 32bit for Reason 5) http://www.energy-xt.com/index.php?id=0115 and a virtual MIDI cable LoopBe1 is perfect( http://www.nerds.de/en/loopbe1.html )

- should create a track for the ReWire VST and start Reason with it
- in Reason should enable the external MIDI (preferences/sync tab) then route it into the needed device (I've only created a Combinator Bitwig connector device, I only need that one, so I've routed the incoming MIDIs to one pf those one)
- in Bitwig should drop the Combinator device into a track and route its out to the track of the ReWire VST

and done

ps. should stop the auto sleep of the ReWire VST (as is in the project file)

with 9.5

Bitwig + ReWire VST is not working, it can't load back the project, but Bitwig + BC PatchWork + ReWire VST + Reason does, as it should, win10x64, vst2

Bitwig 2.1.1 + Blue Cat's PatchWork V2 + ReWire VST ( http://www.energy-xt.com/index.php?id=0115 ) + Reason 9.5 is ok for me

ofc. Reason can't use VSTs in slave mode, but who cares if Bitwig can, MIDI should be routed directly to PatchWork with different channel numbers as on the picture

[xbitz]

ok, found the issue, 'Auto-Suspend' of the ReWire VST should be off then it isn't need PatchWork

ps. auto-window focus can be solved with https://joelpurra.com/projects/X-Mouse_Controls/ on windows

Hi from Austria.

Does anyone tried it with Reason 10?
Do i need the Blue Cat's PatchWork V2 to use it good?


Thx

Just demoing Reason 10.2 and I got it to work also with just Rewire VST and loopMIDI.
Thought Rewire should be enough for some reason so I "forgot" the virtual cable solution and stumbled on your Youtube.
Bitwig and Reason, hello!! thanks for the heads up hint.

Was just trying to get REAPER and Bitwig to play along and I just realized that one can actually use two, virtual cables (why not?)
What is not possible now?
So, loopMIDI and loopbe1 for example and ReaRoute works fine with Bitwig.
