When a DAW is Rewired to Reaper, Panorama is able to control both DAWs. To switch between mapping for Reaper and
mapping for the other DAW, simply hold the [Shift] button and press [Toggle/View].

Setting Up Reaper and Reason for ReWire
Here is an example for how to set up Reason ReWired to Reaper. For other supported
DAWs, just make sure the ReWire setup is correct and in particularly that there is no
Panorama ports that are active in both DAWs.
First: Setting up MIDI ports in Reaper and Reason.
By default, Panorama's Keyboard is set to act as the Master Keyboard in Reason. It's important to disable it to prevent any
conflict between the two applications.
Panorama P1 does not have a keyboard so if this is the Panorama product you own, check your port configuration matches
the Reaper Installation instructions and move to the second part of these instructions.
Open Reason in stand-alone mode, and navigate to the Control Surfaces tab in the Preferences window
Select 'Nektar Panorama' from the list of control surfaces and then click the Edit button
For Keyboard Port , choose 'Not Selected'. Note: In OS X, the Instrument Mode ports are labeled "Instrument Mode" and
should remain unchanged.
Close Reason and open Reaper.
In Reaper, create a track and insert the ReWire plugin
Reason should now launch and the two applications are rewired.
To check it’s all working hold [Shift] and press [Toggle/View] a few times to see Panorama switch back and forth between
controlling Reaper and Reason.
