Voxengo Span VST3 and multiple inputs

Hi everybody,
Is there any way to force a plugin to load with more inputs? The VST3 version of Voxengo Span only has two inputs on Reason but I can make it work in other DAWs.

It seems a problem with Span VST3 version, as I've seen this mentioned in regard to other DAWs as well.

The plugin works fine though:

From Span user guide:
Even though in some audio host applications (e.g., Ableton Live) SPAN in VST format
exposes 8 audio inputs, it does not mean it can display more than 2 spectrums at the
same time. Please consider using GlissEQ or SPAN Plus if you would like to perform
cross-track multi-spectrum analysis

I bet it depends on multichannel output capabilities of choosen DAW (2.1, 5.1, 7.1 = 8 Channels).

Yeah, I tried SPAN Plus and I had the same problem in Reason. But for example in Reaper you can do this and it works:

I was wondering if there's a way specify the number of channels for a plugin in Reason.
