MENU AND DIALOG REFERENCE

369

D All controller data in the MIDI file is included.

Performance controllers such as pitch bend and mod wheel will be part of the note

clips, while other MIDI controllers will be imported onto separate automation lanes,

most often as alien clips. Since the MIDI implementation in Reason is different for

different devices (and not always the same as in other MIDI instruments) you may

want to move automation clips to other lanes (or delete them) to get the best re-

sult.

Export MIDI File...

Reason can export standard MIDI files (SMF). This allows you to transfer MIDI data

from Reason to other applications.

1. Set the End (E) marker at where you want the MIDI file to end.

The MIDI file will contain all events on all tracks from the start of the song to the

End marker.

2. Select “Export MIDI File” from the File menu.

3. In the file dialog that appears, specify a name and location for the file.

The file will automatically get the extension “.mid”.

4. Click Save.

MIDI files exported by Reason will have the following properties:

D The MIDI file will be of Type 1, with one MIDI track for each track in the

Reason sequencer.

The tracks will have the same names as in the Reason sequencer.

D Since the Reason sequencer doesn’t use MIDI channels as such, all

tracks will be set to MIDI channel 1.

D Tempo changes are not included in the MIDI file (only the first tempo in

the Reason song is included).

Export Device Patch...

This item is valid for all items that can save patches. The menu item name reflects the

type of device selected (for example “export Redrum Patch”).

Even though the device settings are stored in the song, you may want to save any set-

tings you have made for a device as a separate patch file. This allows you to use the

patch in other songs, and lets you try out other patches in your song without risking to

lose your sound.

D The different types of patch files have different file extensions.

These are:

“.cmb” (Combinator patch files),

“.zyp” (Subtractor patch files),

“.thor” (Thor patch files),

“.xwv” (Malström patch files),

“.smp” (NN-19 patch files),

“.sxt” (NN-XT patch files),

“.drp” (Redrum patch files)

“.rv7” (RV7000 patch files) and

“.sm4” (Scream 4 patch files).

D If you have selected a patch, modified it and want to save it with the mod-

ifications, you could either save a separate, modified version of the patch

(with a new name) or simply overwrite the old patch file on disk.

As usual, you will be asked whether you really want to replace the existing patch

file.

✪ You can save a patch under the same name and location (without having

the save dialog appear) by holding down [Option] (Mac) or [Alt] (Win-

dows) and clicking the floppy disk button on the device panel. Note that

this overwrites the original patch!

Export Song/Loop as Audio File...

When you have created a complete song, you may want to mix it down to an audio file

to make it playable for other people (who don’t use Reason). You can either export the

whole song (from the start to the “E” marker), or only the loop (the area between the

left and right locator in the sequencer). Proceed as follows:

1. Make sure only the main stereo outputs are used.

The export function will only include audio routed to the stereo outputs.

2. Make sure the Loop/End markers are at the correct positions.

If you want to export the loop, you need to set the left and right locators to encom-

pass the desired area. If you instead want to export the whole song, make sure the

End (E) marker is at the desired end position.

✪ If you are using reverb or delay, you may want to adjust the right locator

or End marker so that the reverb/delay “tails” are included in the ex-

ported file.

3. Check that the song (or loop) plays back properly.

It’s especially important that no clipping occurs during playback (see page 148).

4. Pull down the file menu and select Export Song as Audio File (or Export Loop

as Audio File).

A file dialog appears.

5. Specify a name, location and file type (AIFF or Wave) for the audio file, and

click Save.

6. Specify a sample rate and bit depth (resolution) for the exported file in the

Settings dialog that appears.

If you are exporting to a lower bit resolution (i.e. from 24 bits to 16 bits), you

should activate the Dither checkbox.

7. Click OK.

The program creates the audio file. Depending on the length of the song/loop, this

may take a while, during which a progress dialog is shown.
