Reason Midi Drop Out, Reason's midi functions useless after... Options

I am trying out the software sequencing thing... its much different than a MPC, thats for sure. I'm not ready to give up yet though, it could get interesting.

My question for you intelligent souls is dealing with Reason and Recycle. Typically, I start a track up in Reason and switch back and forth between that and Recycle when I need to import loops. The only problem with this strategy is that when I go back to Reason (everytime) the midi in does not respond, at all. I have tried everything that I can think of, even checking oms. I swear I am not on crack and yes, initially when I open Reason, the midi does work.

If this helps, this is my setup: Roland Juno 106 or Yamaha CS6X connected via midi to Digi 001, Reason and Recycle software (as well as Protools, which I do not use during the creation of the track), Mac G4 DP 550 (overclocked)

Any help with this stumbling block would be greatly appreciated.

This won't answer your question, but...why do you "switch" between the two apps?... The main interest in using Recycle and Reason is that you can create loops in Recycle (alone), creating some sort of beats library and you can later import directly those beats into Reason via DrRex (without having to switch). From then, once imported, you can rearrange those beats if needed by transfering to track (in Reason) the selected beat->transfer to track, go to the editing section of Reason's sequencer and rearrange freely each "slice".
Just a thought...
Regarding your Midi problem, next time it happens, go to Reason's preferences->Midi->check your settings (do likewise with the Advanced Midi menu).
