Specifications

D The sliders, rotaries and buttons A1-A8 control the first eight Re-
Groove Mixer channels (channels A1-A8).
The sliders control Groove Amount, while the knobs control Shuffle or Slide
depending on the selected global Remote variation (this also determines
whether the "A" buttons should control "Use Global Shuffle" or "Pre-Align").
D Knob R9 controls the global shuffle setting, used e.g. for pattern
devices such as Redrum.
D Mixer 14:2
There are two variations, for controlling channels 1-8 or 9-14, respectively.
The sliders control channel levels, the rotaries control pan and the buttons
control mute and solo.
Slider S9 always controls the master level and Knob R9 controls the Aux 1
Return level.
D Line Mixer 6:2
The sliders control the channel levels while the rotaries control pan or aux
sends, depending on the selected variation.
The buttons are mapped to mute and solo.
Slider S9 always controls the master level. Knob R8 controls Aux Return level
and button A8 controls Aux Pre/Post.
D Subtractor
There are two variations. In the default variation, the knobs control filter set-
tings while the sliders control the filter and amp envelopes.
In the second variation, the controls are mapped to oscillator, LFO and Mod
envelope parameters.
D Thor
Rotaries R1-R2 and buttons A1-A2 control the two assignable rotaries and
buttons on Thor's upper panel.
The function of the remaining controls depends on the selected variation.
Variation 1 maps the controls to filter 1 and 2, the Shaper and the filter/amp
envelopes
Variation 2 controls oscillators, LFOs and the mod envelope
Variation 3 and 4 control Step Sequencer note, velocity and gate settings for
steps 1-8 and steps 9-16, respectively.
If one of the two Step Sequencer variations is selected, button B8 controls
the Run button and rotary R9 controls the sequencer rate. Buttons B5-B7
control various sequencer run mode parameters.
D Malström
There are two variations. In the default variation, the sliders control filter set-
tings while the rotaries control the Modulators, Shaper, Spread and master
level.
In the second variation, the rotaries control Oscillator A parameters and the
sliders control Oscillator B.
D Redrum
Buttons A1-A8 select patterns while buttons B1-B4 select bank A-D.
Button B8 is mapped to the Run button.
The sliders control the drum levels while the rotaries are mapped to the pitch
parameters.
By default, drum channels 1-8 are controlled, but you can switch to a second
variation to control drum channels 9-10.
D Effect devices - general
The Bypass/On/Off switch on all effect devices is mapped to button B1.
D BV-512 Vocoder
The main parameters are controlled by the rotaries and buttons. The sliders
adjust band levels - which vocoder bands are controlled depends on the se-
lected variation.
D Matrix Pattern Sequencer
Buttons A1-A8 selects pattern in the current bank, while buttons B1-B4 se-
lects bank. Button B7 controls Pattern Enable and B8 controls Run.
PCR-30/50/80/A30
Requirements/Setting up:
• When you use the PCR keyboard with Reason, you need to make
sure that memory set 0 is selected. This is the memory set selected
by default when you turn the PCR keyboard on.
• If you connect the PCR keyboard via USB or two-way MIDI, Reason
will automatically find it if you click the Auto-detect button on the
Control Surfaces and Keyboards page in the Preferences. The PCR-
A30 will be recognized as a PCR-A30, while the other models will be
recognized as "PCR Series".
• The PCR keyboards have two native MIDI outputs (within the USB
connection). Reason will automatically find the first port on auto-
detect, but you may need to manually select the second port: Select
the PCR keyboard in the control surfaces list, click Edit, select the
second port ("PCR 2" or similar) on the second MIDI Input Port
menu and click OK. If only the first port is properly selected, every-
thing will work fine except the L1, L2 and L3 buttons.
About the controls:
The following buttons are available for use in Reason: B1/B2 (see below), B3,
B4, B5, B6, L1, L2, L3 (the last three requires that both USB MIDI ports are se-
lected - see above).
