D Or you can activate “Learn From Control Surface Input” and simply move
(or press) the control you want to map the parameter to.
The “Control Surface Activity” field momentarily flickers as you turn the knob, and
then the dialog shows the control surface and control it is mapped to.
D If the control surface has a keyboard, you can also select notes as con-
trols.
Notes work just like on/off buttons. If “Keyboard” is selected from the Controls
pop-up, a Note Number field appears in the dialog.
3. Click OK to exit the dialog.
The mapped parameter now shows a lightning bolt icon, indicating it uses Remote
Override mapping. Any overrides are always shown in Remote Override Edit
mode. The device does not have to be selected or have Master Keyboard input fo-
cus.
4. To exit Remote Override Edit Mode, deselect it from the Options menu.
You can also leave this mode by pressing [Escape].
Method 2:
1. Double-click the parameter you wish to map.
A rotating lightning bolt appears for the parameter - this indicates that “Learn From
Control Surface” mode is active. You can leave this mode by pressing [Escape].
2. Now move (or press) the control you want to map the parameter to.
The parameter is now mapped to the control.
You do not always have to edit override mapping when Remote Override Edit mode is
activated - see below.
Override mapping with Remote Override Edit mode deactivated
If Remote Override Edit Mode is enabled on the Options menu, mapped parameters
are “tagged”, and the arrow indicators show the assignable parameters. In this mode,
however, you cannot operate Reason normally. Remote Override Edit mode is prima-
rily for overview of available parameters and the current assignments.
D Another way to map parameters is to have “Remote Override Edit Mode”
deactivated on the Options menu, and to simply [Ctrl]-click (Mac) / right-
click (PC) the parameter you wish to remote control.
This opens a pop-up menu, where one of the options will be “Edit Remote Over-
ride Mapping”. Selecting this will open the Edit Remote Override Mapping dialog.
Thus, you do not have to select Edit mode from the Options menu if you already
know that a parameter is free and assignable.
Removing Remote Overrides
This can be done for a selected parameter in the following way:
1. Select the parameter you wish to remove Remote Override for.
The lightning bolt changes to orange, indicating it is selected.
2. Select “Clear Remote Override Mapping...” from the Edit menu.
You can also [Ctrl]-click (Mac) / right-click (PC) the parameter to select the same
item from the context menu. This is always available, regardless whether Remote
Override Edit mode is selected or not.
Or you can remove all Remote Overrides for a device in one go:
1. Select the device you wish to remove Remote Override for.
2. Select “Clear All Remote Override Mappings for Device” from the Edit menu.
You can also [Ctrl]-click (Mac) / right-click (PC) the device panel to select the
same item from the context menu.
Copying/Pasting Remote Overrides
You can copy Remote Override mappings for a device and paste them into a device
of the same type. This works as follows:
1. With Remote Override Edit mode activated, select the device you want copy
Remote Override mappings from, and the select “Copy Remote Override
Mappings” from the Edit menu.
You can also [Ctrl]-click (Mac) / right-click (PC) the device panel to select the
same item from the context menu.
2. Select the device you wish to paste the copied mappings to.
It has to be the same type of device you copied from. In case you copied Remote
Override mappings from the Transport panel you can thus only paste the map-
pings into another song document.
3. Select “Paste Remote Override Mappings” from the Edit menu.
Now the following happens:
D If you are pasting in the mappings into a device in the same song docu-
ment, a dialog appears informing that the overrides are already used.
You then have the choice of cancelling the operation, or to move the existing over-
rides to the new device.
D If you are pasting into a device in another song, the copied Remote Over-
ride mappings are simply pasted.
In this case, the original Remote Override mappings are not affected.
