SYNCHRONIZATION
61
Under Windows, if you can’t find the MIDI Input you want to use, there is either
something wrong with the installation of the interface, or some other program is
holding on to it. Consult the documentation for the MIDI interface, the other pro-
gram and Windows, for more information.
Reason Windows set up to sync to MIDI Clock coming in via the MIDI interface on a SB PCI
128 card.
5. Close the dialog.
6. Activate MIDI Clock Sync from the Options menu in Reason.
This can also be set on the Transport panel.
7. Activate playback on the other device.
Reason will start playing ‘in sync’ with it and the Sync LED on the Transport
will light up.
Slaving Reason to
Another Program on the
Same Computer
! The preferred method for synchronizing two applications is by us-
ing ReWire, see page 47. However, if the application you need to
sync Reason with doesn’t support ReWire, you can try the proce-
dures described below.
This section describes how to use MIDI Clock to synchronize Reason to another
application running on the same computer. This text is based on the following
assumptions:
• Under Mac OS 9, that the other program has full support for OMS and that
you have read and understood the instructions on MIDI via OMS in general,
described in the chapter “Routing MIDI to Reason”.
• Under Windows, that you have access to a MIDI routing utility, as described
on page 45.
! Note that synchronization via MIDI Clock makes the two programs
play at the same time, that is, they both “run” when you “hit play”. It
does not mean they can both play audio at the same time. See page
281 for details about “sharing audio”.
! A note for users of Mac OS X: As of this writing, there was no prac-
tical way of synchronizing two applications without ReWire.
Proceed as follows:
1. Set up the other program, so that it transmits MIDI Clock to Reason:
• Under Mac OS 9 this is done by selecting the OMS IAC port.
• Under Windows this is done by selecting one of the MIDI routing utility
ports.
2. In Reason, pull down the Edit menu and open the Preferences dia-
log. Select the Advanced MIDI page.
