The Logic Off Topic list

I'm currently running Logic 6 Platinum (OSX) on a G4/800 PowerBook
along with Reason 2.0.  Rewire2 works fine BUT, Reason won't recognise
the Factory Sound bank either on my HD or on the CD!  

When asked to select the Refill on loading the program, clicking on
Factory Sound bank just reads 'Bad Format'.  Strange thing is, Reason
recognises the Orkester Sound Bank without a glitch! 

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

I've tried reinstalling both programs and think that the error may be
to do with Logic 6 as Reason runs without a problem when Logic isn't
installed.    I've even run software restore on my mac to clean up the
OS but still get the same problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

There is some info on Propellerheads' site about a potential problem and fix with Logic 6.1 and Reason. Also, it is possible that there is a problem with the CD itself. I know a few people who had to have either the Factory Sound Bank or Orchestra CD replaced.
