Hi there, I recently updated to Reason 5, and I have this issue that I had before, but it wasn't nearly as consistent as it is now (it occurs at least 90% of the time).
Long story short, when I play a loop from Reason as a Rewire slave into another program (I've tried with both Live and Cubase), the first note (whichever note is at the entry point) doesn't play, and if it does, it's oddly very muffled and short. If I hit play from the beginning of the loop, it starts fine, but this problem occurs as soon as it automatically restarts. I've looked all over, and haven't found any solutions. I've tried running Reason solo, and the problem doesn't occur when I do that, but my setup has had Reason as a Rewire slave for a very long time. I've also tried moving from the first bar to a later one, reinstalling reason, etc and nothing worked. Does anyone have any idea as to what is going on?

I hate to bump, but reason 5 is more or less unusable for me as long as this problem persists. I've noticed that if I start a loop, it will play "correctly" twice before this issue becomes apparent, and it pretty much kills the loop function.
