Reason and Panorama T4/T6 Working Together
The following pages focus on how Reason and Panorama T4/T6 work together. If you have been using Reason for a while, you
may not need any additional information but it's always a good idea to revisit Reason's extensive documentation to remind
yourself, how Reason's functions work.
Track Changes
To navigate Reason's tracks from Panorama T4/T6, press [Track-] to go to the previous track and [Track+] to go to the next
track. This is the same as using the arrow up/down keys on your computer keyboard.
Transport
The transport buttons give access to activate or deactivate the following transport functions: Cycle (loop), Rewind (in 1 bar
decrements), Forward (in 1 bar increments), Stop, Play, Record.
In addition the buttons double up with functionality that's accessed by holding down the [Shift] button. The chart below tells
you what each button and button combination does and how they behave.
Key Combination

[Rewind]
[Forward]
[Stop]
[Play]
[Record]
[Shift]+[Cycle]
[Shift]+[Rewind]
[Shift]+[Forward]
[Shift]+[Stop]

Soft Take-Over
As you control different parts of Reason with the same fader controls you would normally experience parameter jumping. This
is what happens when a fader's physical position, is not the same as the position of the parameter you are controlling.
To avoid parameter jumping your Panorama T4/T6 is equipped with Soft Take-Over. This means that if a control is not in sync
with a parameter, moving the control will not cause a change, until it's position matches the value of the parameter.
Soft-Take-Over can be switched on or off by pressing [Shift]+[fader button 9] or you can temporarily override it by holding
[Shift] when moving a fader.
