Rewire is a protocol system that let's you connect 2 applications externally. It's like a cable that carries both midi and audio back and forth between 2 applications. So you can run sonar as the master, and reason as the slave, and sonar can controll reason. Sends midi to it, and can receive audio back from it... All through rewire... The technology (when I used it) was kind of buggy, hopefully they've updated it on the 64bit platform, it'll be nice. To use it, you go to insert in sonar, and if there's any available rewire apps on your system, they'll be in the rewire submenu. If that menu is unavailable, that means sonar couldn't find any compatible rewire apps. Up till now, 64 sonar couldn't use rewire, because propellerheads had not updated rewire to 64bit. They just did, so reason 6 would be the only usable item. If you have sonar 32bit, then you can use stuff like reason, hypersonic (though it already has dxi and vsti suppport), Vsampler (same thing), or another daw like cubase... BTW, with this update to reason, does it mean Propellerheads perhaps updated their rx2 library dll's to 64bit as well?
