The Missing Sounds dialog
If you clicked “Locate Sounds” in the “Missing Sounds” alert described in “Handling Missing Sounds”, the “Missing
Sounds” dialog appears:
The “Missing Sounds” dialog
The “Missing Sounds” dialog features the same columns as the “Missing Sounds” alert.
Selecting files
The “Search Locations”, “Search Folder”, “Browse Manually” and “Download ReFill” functions (see below) are per-
formed on the files that are selected in the list. This allows you to replace some files manually (necessary if the files
have been renamed or are outside the Locations), have the program find other files automatically and skip the rest of
the files.
D To select a file, click on it in the list.
You can use the standard [Shift], or [Ctrl](Win) or [Cmd](Mac) selection techniques to select several files.
D To select all files in the list, click the “Select All” button above the list.
When the dialog first appears, all files in the list are selected by default.
Search Locations
If you click the “Search Locations” button, Reason will search for the selected files in all Locations set up in the
Browser (except the Desktop). If the program finds a file with the matching name and file type, the new path is stored
in the song/patch and the file is shown as “OK” in the Status column.
! Since the file search looks at the file names, files that have been renamed will not be found!
This also means that if your Locations contain several files with the same name, the wrong sounds may be found.
Search Folder
This function is useful when you need to replace a whole lot of samples and you know where these samples are lo-
cated. A typical example would be if you have reorganized the folder structure on your computer, and the sample
folder has been moved in relation to the folder with a sampler patch or song.
