Mackie Control

Requirements/Setting up:

Reason supports the Mackie Control, or (typically) the Mackie Control Universal in

"Mackie Control" mode.

If you are using a Mackie Control Universal, you need to select the "Mackie

Control" mode of operation: Hold down the SELECT buttons for Ch 1 and Ch 2

and turn on the device - you are then asked which mode of operation to use.

Select "Mackie Ctrl" by pressing the corresponding V-Pot.

You must connect the Mackie Control using two-way MIDI (both MIDI In and Out

should be connected).

Reason will automatically find the Mackie Control if you click the Auto-detect

button on the Control Surfaces and Keyboards page in the Preferences.

About the default mapping:

Note: In the mapping descriptions below, the name labels refer to the default

Logic overlay.

Global modifiers and modes

Pressing the Flip button swaps the functions of the faders and the rotaries. To

return to the normal mapping, press Global View (next to the Flip button).

Normally, the display shows the name of the currently controlled Reason device.

Pressing the Name/Value button will make the display show the names of the

Reason parameters controlled by the faders instead. Press the button again to

show the device name.

Selecting another target device automatically resets Flip state and display mode

to default settings.
