P-LAN signals
P-LAN is the internal system used for routing audio signals from Mix Channel and Audio Track devices to the Main
Mixer Master Section device - and from Mix Channel/Audio Track devices to other Mix Channel devices that are
used as Output Busses (sub-mixers).
P-LAN connections are not indicated by cables or similar in the rack - only by an Audio Output display on the front
and rear of Mix Channel and Audio Track devices:
P-Lan signal destinations on Mix Channel and Audio Track devices (front and rear).
If you use the Direct Out jacks on an Audio Track device or Mix Channel device, the internal P-LAN connection is
broken. In this case, the audio from the Mix Channel/Audio Track device is not sent to the Master Section.
About MIDI routing
Normally, MIDI (e.g. note and performance data) are sent to devices from their respective sequencer track. No cables
are used in the rack to indicate MIDI connections.
For other ways to route MIDI to devices, see the chapters “Remote - Playing and Controlling Devices”, “Synchroniza-
tion and Advanced MIDI” and “External MIDI Instrument”.
About cables
Cable appearance
If there are many connections in Reason, the cables can sometimes obscure the view, making it difficult to read the
text printed on the back panels of the devices. Cables can be displayed in “normal” mode and in “Reduced Cable
Clutter” mode.
D Toggle cable display mode by pressing [K] or by selecting “Reduce Cable Clutter” on the Options menu:
• In “normal” mode, i.e. with the option “Reduce Cable Clutter” deselected, all cables for all devices are dis-
played at the back of the rack.
