For example, if you have a control surface with 8 rotary knobs routed to a Subtractor, the knobs may control filter pa-
rameters by default. Selecting variation 2 may make the knobs control the oscillator settings, variation 3 may control
LFOs and so on.
D For devices that support keyboard shortcuts, you switch between mapping variations by holding down [Ctrl]+
[Alt](Win) or [Cmd]+[Option](Mac) and press the numerical keys [1] to [10] (not the numerical keypad), where
[1] selects the default standard mapping.
How many mapping variations are available depends on the control surface and the Reason device selected. The
variation selected will stay active until you switch MIDI input to another device (or select another variation). If you
switch back to the same device it will have its default standard mapping (variation [1]).
D For control surfaces that have dedicated controls for selecting mapping variations these are used instead of
keyboard shortcuts.
D Locked devices (see “Locking a surface to a device”) can also be locked to a specific mapping variation.
