Hi 2 all.
My main sequenser cubase sx 3, and I use reason 3.0. via rewire for percussion. My question - for example I have in Reason mixer with 5-th Redrums. Is it possible to connect each redrum to different track in Cubase. And if it possible how I can make it. I want to use different Cubase`s eq`s and compressors on each redrum separatly. I already used search but nothing usable for this found. Please share you knowledge. Thank you for your help! |

Hi there.
I use Cubase + Reason 2.5 wich is almost the same. Let me tell you how i do it. First i go to cubase and activate the number of input channels from reason that i presume im gonna use to start with, then i connect all the individual redrum channels to their own outputs on the reason interface (in mono, so only the left cable) @ the top of the rack. I avoid the reason mixer cause it sounds like its reducing the signal quality (this has probably been fixed in version. 3.0 though)
The part about eq'ing individual redrum units is pretty easy. If you make a FX track in cubase with the effects u want, then you take each of the the tracks from the redrum (on the cubase mixer) and use the 'send' function.
Hope i explained it well enough  |

Thank you for your replies! I understood well, and without problems connected this 2 monsters to each other. SO i have one more question - what about reason`s mixer. How you think, is it better to route redrums thru reson`s mixer and after connect to cubase, or avoid this. Thank you! |

Thank you, Colin. I fully understood what you mean. Anyway, I`going to use Reason`s redrums for percussion and may be samplers for weird sounds, and I think if I will use good samples I will not get plastic sound.
Any suggestion about stereo? What is better - to connect device mono from reason and after send this mono in Cubase to stereo group channel, or better to connect stereo in reason. Or may be I should use some magic plugins to make stero from mono (I`d like to make my percussion stereo). |

When I want to add stereo effects to individual sounds coming out of Reason, what I do is to create stereo group channels for each sound, and hide the Rewire channels. Then I mix the sound using the group channel only (after making sure of course that the Rewire channels don't clip!)
