SYNCHRONIZATION

ReWire users – Read This!

This chapter is about synchronization via MIDI Clock, and does not apply to us-

ers of ReWire. If you are using Reason together with a ReWire compatible appli-

cation, ReWire automatically handles all synchronization issues for you. See

page 47 for details.

What is Synchronization

and MIDI Clock?

Synchronization, in this context, is when you make Reason play at the same

tempo as another device; where both start, stop and can locate to certain posi-

tions, together. This is done by transmitting MIDI Clock signals between Reason

and the other device. MIDI Clock is a very fast “metronome” that can be trans-

mitted in a MIDI cable. As part of the MIDI Clock concept there are also instruc-

tions for Start, Stop and locating to sixteenth note positions.

You can set up synchronization between Reason and hardware devices (tape

recorders, drum machines, stand alone sequencers, workstations etc.) and

other computer programs running on the same or another computer.

Master/Slave

In a synchronized system there is always one master and one or more slaves. In

our case, the master is the one that controls the tempo. In other words, it is only

the tempo setting on the master device that is of any relevance, since the slaves

slavishly follow the master's tempo.

D Reason always acts as a slave. That is, it receives MIDI Clock sig-

nals, it never transmits them.

! Before you create any serious projects that require sync, try out the

features described below and check out “Synchronization Consid-

erations” on page 117.

Slaving Reason to an

External Device

This example assumes that you have an external device, such as a drum ma-

chine, hardware sequencer, another computer, tape recorder etc., that transmits

MIDI Clock signals to which you want to synchronize Reason.

1. Connect a MIDI Cable from the MIDI Out on the other device to a

MIDI In on the computer running Reason.

2. Set up the other device so that it transmits MIDI Clock signals to

the MIDI Out you just connected to the computer running Reason.

3. In Reason, pull down the Edit menu (under Mac OS X, the Reason

menu) and open the Preferences dialog. Select the Advanced MIDI

page.

4. Pull down the MIDI Clock Sync pop-up and select the MIDI Input to

which you connected the MIDI cable from the other device.

Under Mac OS 9, if you do not understand which Input this is, or if that MIDI

input doesn’t appear in the list, consult your OMS documentation for infor-

mation on MIDI interfaces, MIDI ports and naming.

Reason Mac OS 9 set up to sync to MIDI Clock coming in from a MPC-60 drum machine

connected to an external MIDI interface.
