PCR-1
Requirements/Setting up:
• When you use the PCR-1 with Reason, you need to make sure that memory set 0
is selected. This is the memory set selected by default when you turn the PCR-1
on.
• Reason will automatically find the PCR-1 if you click the Auto-detect button on the
Control Surfaces and Keyboards page in the Preferences.
About the controls:
The PCR-1 has 16 knobs (to use the last eight, press Shift).
The following buttons are available for use in Reason: B1/B2 (see below), B3, B4, B5
and B6.
Due to the settings in preset 0, buttons B1 and B2 cannot be used as two separate
buttons. Instead they appear as a single control surface item called "Dec/Inc But-
tons". You can map this item to a parameter in Reason.
About the default mapping:
D Buttons B4 and B5 are used for "Target Previous Track" and "Target Next
Track" (moving the master keyboard input up or down in the track list).
D For patch devices, buttons B3 and B6 are used for selecting the previous
and next patch, respectively.
D When controlling devices with many parameters, keyboard shortcut vari-
ations are used.
PCR-M1
The PCR-M1 works just like the PCR-1 when you use it as a control surface with Rea-
son (see above). The only differences are
• The PCR-M1 can be connected via MIDI instead of USB. In that case, you need a
two-way MIDI connection (both MIDI In and MIDI Out) for Reason to be able to
auto-detect the keyboard. However, you can always add the PCR-M1 manually.
• The PCR-M1 has inputs for hold pedal and expression pedal.
PCR-30/50/80/A30
Requirements/Setting up:
• When you use the PCR keyboard with Reason, you need to make sure that mem-
ory set 0 is selected. This is the memory set selected by default when you turn the
PCR keyboard on.
• If you connect the PCR keyboard via USB or two-way MIDI, Reason will automati-
cally find it if you click the Auto-detect button on the Control Surfaces and Key-
boards page in the Preferences. The PCR-A30 will be recognized as a PCR-A30,
while the other models will be recognized as "PCR Series".
• The PCR keyboards have two native MIDI outputs (within the USB connection).
Reason will automatically find the first port on auto-detect, but you may need to
manually select the second port: Select the PCR keyboard in the control surfaces
list, click Edit, select the second port ("PCR 2" or similar) on the second MIDI In-
put Port menu and click OK. If only the first port is properly selected, everything
will work fine except the L1, L2 and L3 buttons.
About the controls:
The following buttons are available for use in Reason: B1/B2 (see below), B3, B4,
B5, B6, L1, L2, L3 (the last three requires that both USB MIDI ports are selected - see
above).
! Due to the settings in preset 0, buttons B1 and B2 cannot be used as two
separate buttons. Instead they appear as a single control surface item
called "Dec/Inc Buttons". You can map this item to a parameter in Rea-
son.
About the default mapping:
D Buttons B5 and B6 are used for "Target Previous Track" and "Target Next
Track" (moving the master keyboard input up or down in the track list).
D For patch devices, buttons B3 and B4 are used for selecting the previous
and next patch, respectively.
D The three buttons to the left (above the pitch bend lever) are used for
transport control: L1 = Stop, L2 = Play and L3 = Record.
Note again that both USB MIDI input ports must be selected for this to work.
D When controlling devices with many parameters, keyboard shortcut vari-
ations are used.
