USING REASON AS A REWIRE SLAVE
51
Mark of the Unicorn
Digital Performer
Performer Versions
In this description we assume you are using Digital Performer version 2.72 or
later.
OMS
Since Reason requires OMS we recommend that you set up Digital Per-
former to also use OMS. In that way you can for example use OMS’s IAC
feature to send MIDI between the programs.
Activating ReWire Channels in Digital Performer
To activate the desired inputs from Reason, in Digital Performer, proceed as
follows:
1. Make sure you have the Tracks window up on screen.
2. Create as many audio tracks as you need ReWire inputs. For each
one decide whether you want it to use a mono or stereo voice.
For example, you might want to set the track assigned to the Left/Right
output in Reason to use a stereo voice and other tracks to use mono
voices. Note that you can always add or remove channels later as will,
the system is completely dynamic.
3. Pull down the Input menu for a track and select the desired Reason
input.
4. Click the record enable button for the track(s).
5. Connect devices in Reason to the corresponding channels on the
Hardware Device.
Now when you play back, the audio from Reason will appear on the cor-
responding voices in Digital Performer.
Here the Digital Performer Mixing Board is displayed with three Reason inputs
selected, one stereo and two mono.
How the ReWire Channels are handled in Digital
Performer
When you set up tracks to receive audio from ReWire, as described above,
the corresponding tracks are added to the track list in the Mixing Board win-
dow.
➜ The tracks have generic names by default. to rename them hold
down [Option] and click on the name at the bottom of the channel
strip.
➜ These channels are identical to regular audio channels. That is,
they have all the fx, bussing and automation facilities provided for
regular hard disk recording channels.
➜ For information about how to set levels, panning, EQ, fx and bus-
sing, etc, see the Digital Performer documentation.
