First off i do want to say that ive searched through the forums before posting this. and ive tried a whole lot of things to make this work.

What i want to do is play reason sounds on my midi keyboard, and have them record into my mpc. What i am trying to use is my pc gameport, which of course has midi in and midi out. The midi in is running to my midi keyboard and that plays reason sounds perfectly fine. I ran my midi out to my mpc in thinking that the sounds i play on the keyboard will record on my mpc. I am stuck, will this even work?? I read a few people on here use mpc with reason so hopefully someone will know how to do this if its possible.

Also if its not possible what are my other options in using reason sounds in conjunction with my mpc.

THANKS!!!

Look under advance midi options in ur reason manual it explains this in detain on how to hook it up......The mp just records the info and needs to be used as the main sequencer

Good luck

This is how i have my setup.
MIDI OUT (keyboard) to MIDI IN 1 (MPC)
MIDI OUT A (MPC) to MIDI IN (on my PC)

In Reason, go to preferences and go to Advanced MIDI. Set those settings to the right settings that go with your PC MIDI Connection. Select the right Clock Sync also. Let me know how it goes. Send me a message on AIM if you'd like. I have the MPC1k so Im not too sure if its the same midi setting on the 2kXL
