August 8th: Multiple MIDI Controllers in Reason

We were assigned a whole new project to work on this past weekend. Jordan and I, the computer science people, worked on wiring multiple MIDI controllers in Reason most of the time today.

Step 1: Connect the controllers, keyboards in our case, to the computer.

Step 2: Edit -> References -> Keyboards and Control Surfaces -> Add: Select the Manufacturer and Model, then name individual devices. (Here is one problem: Reason can't tell 2 controllers of the same model apart.)

Step 3: Edit -> References -> Advanced Control: Distribute each device to the Bus we want.

Step 4: Go to the top of the rack and click on ADV. MIDI DEVICE: assign the specific MIDI device to the Bus and Channel we need.

We can play each device on a different keyboard now! ~^_________^~
