I'm thinking about upgrading to 4.0. I will lose all my favorite settings. Anybody know how to save them so I could load them back in?

Joe

what do you mean settings?

Like your favorite drum sounds or other sounds. It's the "Favorites" window in the left hand corner right below "Location" when you go Edit>Open.

I meant File>Open.

Not that I know of... sorry.

The favorites folders and their contents (patch aliases/shortcuts) are stored in the reason preferences file along with other program settings. You can copy and backup this file by saving the Reason Preferences.prf file located in your C:\Documents and Settings\your_username\Application Data\Propellerhead Software\Reason folder.

But remember this - the favorites folder only stores aliases to patches. So after restoring your preferences file after reinstalling Reason, all of the aliases to patches saved in your favorites folder won't work unless the patches they link to are in the same places they were before. So if you have favorites patches stored in a number of different places on your hard drive(s), you need to copy all of those patch files back to their previously saved/aliased locations.

work for me..thanks
