6. An image of the selected control surface model is shown, often along with some informa-
tion text - read this carefully.
For some control surfaces, you need to select a specific preset to use the surface with Reason - this
is noted here.
7. Use the MIDI Input pop-up to select the input port to which you have connected the sur-
face.
If in doubt, you can click the Find button and then tweak a control or play a key on the control surface
to have Reason find the correct input port for you.
•
Some control surfaces may have more than one MIDI Input pop-up menu.
You need to select ports on all MIDI Input pop-up menus.
•
Some control surfaces will have a MIDI Output pop-up menu.
In some cases this labeled "Optional" - then you don't have to make a selection. In other cases, a MIDI
Output is required. This is the case if the control surface uses MIDI feedback - motor fader, displays,
etc.
8. If you like, you can rename your control surface in the Name field.
9. Click OK to add the surface.
Depending on the surface model, alerts may appear, reminding you to select a specific preset etc.
In some cases, Reason can restore a preset in the control surface to factory settings for you - you are
then informed of this.
Finally you return to the Keyboards and Control Surfaces tab in Preferences, where your added surface is
now listed.
