Remove the old ReaSonus version
If you had the 'old' ReaSonus version installed, installing the new one will leave you with some artifacts. Within the Actions List there is a huge list of old ReaSonus actions that addde some of the logic. You do not need them anymore.
Step 1
First we will remove all the actions from the list. This can be done by going to the Reaper resource folder. Once in the folder:
- Search for
reaper-kb.iniand make a copy of it (just to be sure) - Open the file in your editor of choice
-
There will be a list of lines like
SCR 4 0 REASONUS_ALWAYS_ON "Reasonus: Always On" Reasonus/always-on.lua -
All the lines with
REASONUS_in it can be removed. Please take care not to remove other lines - Save your changes and step 1 is done
Step 2
Now we will remove all the actual files with th scripts
- In the Reaper resource folder is a folder named Scripts. Open this folder
- Inside this folder you'll see all scripts added by either yourself or other script makers
- Therer should be a folder named: Reasonus, and remove it
- We're done
When you now restart REAPER and go to the actions list all the old ReaSonus scripts should be gone.
Make a backup
It will never harm creating backups. If you make backups of your complete REAPER resource folder, you probably should be fine. But here the steps to create a backup and using a backed up version
Making a backup
-
Open the REAPER resource folder. In REAPER go to
Options>ShowREAPERresource path in Explorer/Finder. - In there you will find a folder named ReaSonus. In this folder are the filters, settings, localisation files and plugin mapping files located.
- Save a copy of the folder with all the content to a save place.
Using a backed up version
-
Open the REAPER resource folder. In REAPER go to
Options>Show REAPER resource path in Explorer/Finder. - You might want to backup the current files. See above how to.
- Remove/Rename the Reasonus folder
- Move the ReaSonus folder from the backup to the REAPER resource folder. (Be sure it is still named ReaSonus)
- Restart REAPER
