Scaler 2.4.1 & Reason 12 Crashing Issue

Hi there, ever since having Scaler 2.4.0, Scaler refuses to open in Reason 12, and then the program itself becomes unresponsive. I have never had this issue with the first Scaler 2 version and that version appears to work with Reason 12, so it seems there is some compatibility issue here. Does anyone else experience this and is there a workaround right now? I have updated to Scaler 2.4.1 as well but it did not fix anything. I’m able to run it in a VST host like Nanohost and that’s about it. I’m a very patient person so I don’t mind using it in Nanohost and dragging stuff over! (I mainly just use it to drag out chord ideas!) But having it in the DAW would be nice…

I have Reason version 12.2d36 running MacOS 10.14.6
When I attempt to load, it crashes and closes Reason completely.

Here is the Problem Details and System Configuration log -
