Novation Launchkey 49 and Reason

Hello All,

I have just acquired a Novation Launchkey RGB 49 and decided to dive back into Reason after a long hiatus. I'm running Reason 5. I have the keyboard and pads working, but the sliders and knobs are not doing quite so well. This thread below is the only thread i've found on the entire internet about this problem. People claim to have fixed it, but none of their solutions have worked for me.

I have a weird instance. I fixed the error below in Launchkey.lua by removing one 'end' statement in the LUA file. However, I am now getting the same errors for a file called Launchkey MK2.lua. The weird part is that this file does not exist. So how is it getting this error? Also, when I installed the Reason 8 demo version, I was able to connect all the sliders and such without issue.

So. All of this to say, does anyone know how Reason 8 is detecting control surfaces differently than Reason 5? Or can someone check and see if they're Reason 5 has this Launchkey MK2.lua file and mine is just missing? I did run the Reason installer provided by Novation.

Any direction would be great. I've only got half a controller right now :(
