How to Install Reason Without Inserting the CD
- 1). Visit the Propellerhead website by clicking on the link that is provided in the "Resources" section of this article. There you will find a list of all of the products that offer demo versions for direct download.
- 2). Click on either the "Reason Demo for Mac" or "Reason Demo for Windows" link, depending on the operating system that you are using. A dialog box will open asking whether you want to save the installation files or run them automatically. Click the "Save" button to store the installation files to your hard disk if you want to install the application at a later time.
- 3). Open the installation files by clicking "Open" and follow the on-screen instructions for installing the Reason demo on your computer. Once the installation is complete, you will be able to access all of the instruments and effects that are provided with the full disc version, minus the ability to save your projects. A time limit of 30 minutes will also be placed on Reason each time it is opened.
