you have to set the MPD up 'in' reason.. you need to go into the preferences menu in reason to do this..

there is a editor program that came with the mpd24, if not down load it from akaipro.com, load that program up and create a template. simply at that. take your time and read as you go along because you will learn other things/features about the mdp24.

Dang man, you can't even say thanks to these guys for their help...and you keep asking for more??? Plus homeboy gives you the site where you can dload the necessary file, but you gotta request a direct link? I don't mean to hate, but man, you're beyond lazy and unappreciative. Che-che-check yourself.
