Reason "Bad Format"
View this Thread in Original format
Dirty Ice
I cant open my song I made in reason. How can I fix it. It says "BAD FORMAT" this happend right after I defraged my puter. I looked on reasons web site and tried what they said (rename the file) that did not work.
Anyone know what I can do here?
Dirty Ice
Here is the Song File. See if it opens for one of you guys.

Sounds like your buggered!!!

Move on, create a new song, a better one!!!

I do it all the time. Think I've produced the best track I've ever done, lose it, due to stoopidity or faulty hardware, then decide to re-do the track. Always works for me. Pay more attention to the small details 2nd time round.
Dirty Ice
Man I hate to redo it. I spent alot of time adding alot of details to this song. I thought I was just about finished with it. and bam!
Will you see if it opens for you, so I can know if its something else besides the song.

Sorry bud, afraid I'm not using Reason, on FL Studio :eyespop:
Dirty Ice
Cool, Thanks Anyway

It opens fine for me. Except it's missing parts of the file. Some things look normal, and some just look like it was chopped up with a knife. It doesn't play though for some reason. Sorry bud.

I know how to fix it. But I need some help. If you open the song and go to File then "Song Self-Contained settings" and choose uncheck all then save the song as a new name. This will solve my problem. Can you please do that for me.

No self-contained settings on this song bud. Sorry.

Crap! I'm really not liking this. O well I guess I need to just move on then. Thanks anyway my man. O the reason nothing plays is becouse I use reason in the Re-wire mode with cubase sx. So all the midi is in cubase. Well atleast I have that. But damn I hate when like this happens.

At least it's not a total loss then.

Renaming the project didn't work. Any more methods to solve the bad format problem? :conf: ( it's an old Reason 2.5 project and I really would like to open it )
