If your control surface model isn’t listed

If you can’t find your control surface listed on the Manufacturer or Model pop-up

menus when you try to add it, this means that there’s no native support for that model.

However, the program supports generic keyboards and controllers. Here’s what to

do:

D Select “Other” on the Manufacturer pop-up menu and then select one of

the three options on the Model pop-up menu.

or, if the Manufacturer is listed but not your specific model:

D Select one of the three “Other” options on the Model pop-up menu:

In both cases, the options are:

• MIDI Control keyboard

Select this is you have a MIDI keyboard with programmable knobs, buttons or fad-

ers. You need to set up your control surface so that the controllers send the cor-

rect MIDI CC messages, depending on which Reason device you want to control

- check out the MIDI Implementation Chart in the Reason documentation. If your

control surface has templates or presets for different Reason 2.5 devices, these

can be used.

• MIDI Control Surface

Select this if you have a MIDI controller with programmable knobs, buttons or fad-

ers (but without keyboard).

Again, you need to set your controllers to send the right MIDI CCs.

• MIDI Keyboard (No Controls)

Select this is you have a MIDI keyboard without programmable knobs, buttons or

faders. This is used for playing only (including performance controllers such as

pitch bend, mod wheel, etc.) - you cannot adjust Reason device parameters with

this type of control surface.

✪ Under the “Other” Manufacturer, there are also two options called “MIDI

Keyboard Multichannel” and “MIDI Controller Multichannel”. Use these

if the controls on your keyboard/control surface send the same MIDI

message but on different MIDI channels. Read more in the Remote chap-

ter.

After selecting a model, proceed with selecting MIDI input as described above.

About the master keyboard

One of the control surfaces can be the master keyboard. This is like any other control

surface, but it must have a keyboard and it cannot be locked to a specific Reason de-

vice (in other words, it always follows the MIDI input to the sequencer). This is the sur-

face you use to play the instrument devices in Reason.

D The first surface with a keyboard that is added (or found by auto-detect)

is automatically selected to be the master keyboard.

This is shown in the Attached Surfaces list on the Preferences page.

D If you want to use another surface as master keyboard, select it in the list

and click the “Make Master Keyboard” button.

You can only have one master keyboard.

D If you don’t want to use any master keyboard at all, select the current

master keyboard surface and click the same button (which is now la-

beled “Use No Master Keyboard”).

The Master Keyboard Input setting

This determines how you set master keyboard input in the sequencer: to which track

and device the master keyboard should be directed (which track to play from your

keyboard):

D In Standard mode, the last selected track automatically gets master key-

board input.

This way you can just click anywhere on a track in the track list to select it for play-

ing (or use the arrow keys to step up and down in the track list).

D In Separated mode, you need to click directly on the device icon to the

left in the track list to set master keyboard input.

This is useful if you’re working with multiple selections in the track list, or if you

want to select different tracks for editing without changing which device you play

from your keyboard.

Preferences – Advanced Control

External Control Bus Inputs

The External Bus inputs provide up to 64 MIDI input channels divided into four buses,

each with 16 channels.

D These MIDI inputs are for controlling Reason Devices from an external

sequencer.

This could be an external hardware sequencer or sequencer software that is installed

on the same computer as Reason. See the chapter “Routing MIDI to Reason”.

MIDI Clock Sync

Using MIDI Clock, you can slave (synchronize) Reason to hardware devices (tape re-

corders, drum machines, stand alone sequencers, workstations etc.) and other com-

puter programs running on the same or another computer. MIDI Clock is a very fast

“metronome” that can be transmitted in a MIDI Cable. As part of the MIDI Clock con-

cept there are also instructions for Start, Stop and locating to sixteenth note posi-

tions.

D By first selecting the appropriate MIDI input using the MIDI Clock pop-up

and then selecting “MIDI Clock Sync” on the Options menu, Reason is

made ready to receive MIDI Clock sync.

See the “Synchronization” chapter for more information.

International (Windows only)

Reason is localized to several different languages. The language setting affects

menus, dialogs, tool tips and some display texts, but generally not the texts on the de-

vice panels.

You need to restart the program for a language change to take effect.
