Editing parameters

Since a large part of Reason is laid out like “real” hardware devices, such as the Main Mixer, instrument and effect de-

vices etc., almost all controls are designed like their real world counterparts - mixer faders, effect unit knobs, transport

buttons, etc. How to adjust these controls is described in the following paragraphs.

Knobs

D To “turn” a knob, point at it, hold down the mouse button and drag up or down (as if the knob was a vertical

slider).

Dragging upwards turns the knob clockwise and vice versa.

D If you press [Shift] and drag, the knob will turn slower, allowing for higher precision.

You can also adjust the knob precision with the “Mouse Knob Range” setting on the General page in Preferences.

This dialog is opened from the Edit menu (or from the Reason menu if you are running Mac OS X).

D To reset a knob to its default value (usually zero, center pan or similar), press [Ctrl](Win) or [Cmd](Mac) and

click on the knob.
