Running Reason with the Ignition Key hardware
If you launch Reason with an authorized Ignition Key hardware connected, the program will simply start without fur-
ther ado.
q From now on, always connect your Ignition Key hardware before starting your computer and launching Rea-
son. This way Reason will start up immediately, without the Application Authorization procedure.
When you have an authorized Ignition Key hardware connected to your computer, it’s no longer necessary to have an
Internet connection when running Reason.
Running Reason with Internet Verification
If you launch Reason without an authorized Ignition Key hardware connected, the following window appears:
1. Click on the "Run with Internet Verification" button.
! Note that this requires a working Internet connection (and that your Reason license has been registered to
your user account as described in “Registering and authorizing Reason”).
2. Enter the username and password for your Propellerhead account in the dialog that appears.
Reason launches in Authorized Mode.
• Should you at any point connect your authorized Ignition Key hardware, Internet connection will no longer be
required.
• It is not possible to run two instances of Reason (on different computers) authorized to the same user account.
Reason will then enter Demo Mode (see “Running Reason in Demo Mode”).
