Is this possible? Can I play a patch on the Subtractor in Reason reWired via Live?

It would be great !!!

I have been trying to get my Remote25 to play Reason through Live but it wont work. When I hit a key there is no midi information getting through. On occasion I get a midi note message through but then the note hangs. I contacted Novation and they said it should work fine. Is anybody using this combination without problems?

yes.

try using it in reason without live and vice versa, does it work then?

I have never had any problems with sending midi data via remote 25, so I'm afraid I can't help much. Describe what you're doing and how you're setting it up.

Hi mlabs,

The thing is that I will use Live as the master and Reason as the slave in ReWire.

So, the question is; can I play the Substractor synth in Reason with my keyboard controller while I'm in Live??

Live will "steal" the midi connection, it won't go through to Reason.

The solution is to use a program like Hubi's Loopback or MidiYoke.

I prefer MidiYoke as it allows you to do more advanced things like swap CC numbers via software, limit knobs and faders and various other stuff that is cool too

Great Amberience,

Can you tell me a little how this works?? Is this a virtual thing or a piece of hardware?? Can you send it through USB?

ooohhhh. I need to do this too. Anyone got a solution?

Is this an error in the Rewire implementation? You can certainly do this with other Rewire master seqs.

No problems here.
I play reason through Live all the time!
Totally no latency.
It is possible and in my opinion very easy to set up.....
I am on a mac and it works in 9.2 and in OSX
Keep on trying..

thanks for the taunting.

well, over here, it seems that Live will happily share a MIDI port with Reason. So go into Preferences -> MIDI in Reason and select the midi port you want Reason to use. Live seems indifferent to this behavior, and can also use the same port.

This is not how Rewire works in other apps, like DP or SX, where you have to pipe the MIDI from the Master to the Slave... so I don't think it's suprising that someone is confused.

Hello there six_wax,

I've been checking out your post on Live sharing a midi port with Reason.

Well, it did'nt, so can you please help me again on this?

I did go to Preferences MIDI in Reason and, I only have one MIDI-port on my soundcard, so I made sure that that output was selected.

After that I started Live and than Reason as a ReWire slave. However, when I start Reason I immediately got a message that the midi-port was take over by another application, in this case Live.

So, I immediately went to the MIDI-preferences in Reason again to find everything indeed was blocked over there.

So, please tell me how do you do it??
