I just found out how to use the ren with reason...

Well it works with 2 soundcard

In my case the Mpc ren audio card and my rme multiface.

I ve started reason which works with the Asio rme driver..I created a audio track.
Then I ve started the Mpc ren software which works with the Asio akai Mpc ren driver.
The I've connected the ren digital outs with the digital in of the rme card...
The other outs should work also.

Now back to reason.
If I choose (in my case the digital in) the digital in I can (monitor)the Mpc ren ...

Now I can make beats on the ren in reason...

Reason only allow 2 audio ins @ the same time.
So the best option is just monitor in reason an when you are ready just render all Mpc tracks inside the ren and import then into audio tracks.

Now I can make beats on the ren and record diva into reason...this opens new doors..

I haven t work out how to sync each other...

as soon as I come back Home i m gonna try out a few options...

:hmmm:

.

Well one idea is use the Mpc midi ports in reason to control the reason synths in the Mpc via midi...


Any ideas / suggestions would be greate. !!!! :popcorn: :popcorn:

Damm it doesn't worked out...

I can control the reason synths with the Mpc ...that works...

But midi clock into reason doesn't t work

Can the Mpc receive midi clock ?

I can use the Mpc software @ the moment as a vst host.

I can use the external midi out in reason 7 to sequence 1vst synth like diva with my Mpc as a host...

Only monotimbral not multitimbral...


But nice getting monark or diva into the reason world...

Maybe I m gonna get the reason 7 upgrade


Any suggestions? C mon discuss :popcorn: :smoker: :nod:

The 1.4 update that is coming out soon will allow the MPC Software to act as MIDI slave so that means your problems should be solved once the update is out. :)
