Look it up under propellerheads.se then support then rewire then look for acid 4.0

I could figure out how to link this.

> I could figure out how to link this.

Usually when you have links that are within a frame set (as the Propellerhead site is designed) you have to right click on the link and use Copy Shortcut (for IE6). That will save the actual link to the page.

METAFOR, The page DKeenum was referring to is: Sonic Foundry Acid 4.0d

does it show up on the list in the rewire preferences dialog box? i can't remember if newly installed rewire clients are automatically 'on' by default but maybe that's something to double-check.

It’s in the Preferences dialog next to the VST Instruments tab. If you don’t see it, make sure you are using at least ACID Pro 4.0c because that’s when ReWire support was added. I’m guessing you have an earlier version of ACID Pro 4.0,a or b..

Go to Options>Preferences>Rewire Devices>Check box next to Reason (if Reason is not available hit Refresh)
You must first open Acid
Then open Reason
Press insert softsynth
Go to Rewire Devices Tab select Reason channels you want to use
Hit enable Real Time MIDI button...
If reason is still not available you may have to uninstall and re-install Reason...Level Vibes

METAFOR,
Download 4.0f. It's a stable version.

edit: I just saw in a later post that you did do just that. How is it working?

the problem was that i had an earlier version of acid pro 4.0. i updated to acid pro 4.0f, which worker, and now i have the rewire tab. its beautiful to be able to use reason through acid and record. thanks johnny
