REMOTE - PLAYING AND CONTROLLING DEVICES

About the various MIDI inputs
This chapter describes how you use Remote to set up your master keyboard and control surfaces, allowing you to
play Record devices, adjust parameters and control various Record functions. This is the main way of sending MIDI to
Record, but there are also some additional methods:
D Using ReWire 2.
ReWire allows you to run Record together with another application, such as a sequencer or another DAW. With
ReWire 2, you can send MIDI from the other application directly to devices in Record. See “Routing MIDI via Re-
Wire 2”.
D Using the External Control Bus inputs.
The External Control Bus inputs (set up on the Preferences - Advanced MIDI page and in the MIDI In device in the
hardware interface) let you send MIDI directly to the individual devices in the rack. This is mainly used if you control
Record from an external sequencer, etc. See “About the External Control Bus inputs”.
D Sending MIDI Clock to Record.
This allows you to synchronize Record’s tempo to other devices. See “Synchronization to MIDI Clock”.
About Remote
MIDI from control surfaces (keyboards, remote control units etc.) is handled by a protocol called Remote. The Remote
protocol allows for seamless integration between Record and control surface devices. It is basically a mapping sys-
tem that provides direct hands-on control of parameters for each Record device - including transport and sequencer
track selection!
At the time of this writing, Record supports a large number of control surfaces and keyboards - the knobs, faders and
buttons on the devices are automatically mapped to parameters on each Record (and Reason) device.
Remote drivers for more control surfaces will be added continuously. Check the Propellerhead web page in case your
model isn’t listed on the Preferences - Control Surfaces and Keyboards page.
Remote controlling Record devices couldn’t be made any simpler. Set up your control surface once and for all for use
with Record - the program handles the rest!
