Lite vs full version
What the free Lite edition covers, what the full version adds, and how to upgrade without redoing setup.
Reason Remote comes in two editions, sold as separate Stream Deck plugins. They share the same Reason codec, MIDI ports and Reason surfaces, and every page works the same way in both. The difference is how many instruments the deck follows.

What Lite covers#
Lite follows 8 devices. Four of them are Reason Free: Europa, Kong, ID8 and Monotone. The other four are SubTractor, Redrum, Radical Keys and the Combinator. Each has a page in the instrument list.

About 60 seconds on what Lite includes, then the upgrade page below. Nothing is embedded yet.
The hub has two pages. Next on the first page opens the second, and Back returns.











When you select something else#
Select a device that only the full version covers and Lite opens a page naming it:


- Selected shows the device you picked.
- Get it opens the full version on the Elgato Marketplace.
- Back goes to the Lite hub.
Nothing is broken. Select one of Lite's instruments and the deck follows again.
Upgrading to the full version#
- If you customised Lite's profiles, export each one from the Stream Deck app's profile settings first. The full version installs its own profiles, laid out differently, and uninstalling Lite removes Lite's profiles.
- Uninstall Lite in the Stream Deck app: right-click the plugin, then Uninstall.
- Install Reason Remote and accept its profiles.
That's it. Leave the codec, loopMIDI ports and Reason surfaces as they are, because both editions use the same ones. Combinator layouts are outside the plugin, so they stay too.

The Stream Deck app's uninstall, then the full version's profile prompts. The upgrade page the deck shows is the real key art below, not this box.
