Controlling Reason via MIDIReason provides access to many of its controls and synths via the ReWire MIDI busses. To make use of this feature, you need to set a MIDI Out Channel in FL Studio to a specific port/Channel which is mapped to the ReWire MIDI bus of Reason: Open the MIDI Options for ReWiredClick the MIDI Options button for the ReWired Channel that is linked to Reason. Map Input PortTo send MIDI data to Reason, you need to map an FL Studio input port to the ReWire bus. Use the following settings to create a new mapping:
Click Add/Change. The mapping will appear in the Mappings list. Create a MIDI Out ChannelAdd an instance of the MIDI Out Channel to your project. Adjust the MIDI Out settingsSet the Output Port of the MIDI Out Channel to 50 (or the port you have selected to map earlier). The default project in Reason (2.5 or later) contains a controllable synth on Channel 2 - MelodyB (for a full list of synths, see the Channels list in the ReWired MIDI Options window). Select Channel 2 in MIDI Out. Any notes now played in MIDI Out will be sent to Reason and played by MelodyB. You can also add additional MIDI Out Channels to control other available Channels. |
