I have tried every internet suggestion for this but who has successfully synched the MPC Renaissance with Reason. I have done it with my MPC 1000 but not the Ren. What is the best solution? :hmmm:

well you can control the reason synths with the mpc via midi busses in reason...

the mpc can t be a midi clock slave @ the moment...i sure it s gonna be @1.4 update...

search for my tread and check out what is possible @ moment with reason 7

If Reason can slave to MTC, then you are in business. On a Mac, you can use the IAC drivers to accomplish this. You can also accomplish connecting another MIDI interface to your computer then connecting the Ren's physical MIDI I/O to this MIDI interface.

I did this video to show exactly how to conect MPC SW and Reason via MIDI protocol using IAC.

Hi TT_Lab,
thanks a lot for your reply, your video was very useful to me. I've searched a lot for that kind of video but i've missed it..
I followed exactly what you did on your video but I still have an issue....
Everything works fine untill I play in mpc software my reason piano sequence..
The notes are not played "one after the other", all the notes are looping (it seems like a bug...) and notes are still looping even when i stop playing in mpc software..
To stop the loop i have to change the type of the track from "midi" to "drum" or "plugin"...
Do you have any idea?
I think I'am very close from success now..
Thanks a lot for your help
