D Tick the checkbox to open the last saved song the next time you launch Reason.
New devices get browse focus
When this is active, Browse focus is automatically set to new devices as soon as they have been created. This means
that you can immediately start to browse for, and load, compatible patches for the devices you just created. Browse
focus is indicated by orange sidebars and an orange patch section on the devices. The top section of the Browser
also gets an orange label with the device’s current patch name printed on it.
Load default sound in new devices
When this is activated and you create a new device (of a device type that supports patches), a default patch will be
loaded. This way you can be sure that a new device generates sound right away. The default sound will also deter-
mine the default location in the Factory Sound Bank when you browse for patches for the new device.
If you turn this off, new devices will be initialized - parameters are reset to their default values and no samples are
loaded in sample-based devices.
! Note that “Sound” also implies patches for effect devices such as the RV7000 and Scream 4.
Self-contain samples when loading from disk
When this is activated, any samples you load into a sampler device from disk will automatically become self-contained
and saved together with the rest of the song data when you save your Song.
Open Companion on Startup (available in Reason+ only)
When this is activated, the Reason+ Companion application launches automatically when you launch Reason.
