Midi signals recording to track

infernal211283	Date: October 31, 2005 @ 2:38 PM Hi, I have a simple midi keyboard with which i'm able to play the synthesizers within reason but i have problem recording the midi. I enabled the 'midi' and 'recording' icons to the left of the synth's track and enabled the 'recording' icon at the transport, tried to record a midi sequence to a subtractor track but it didn't add the sequence... What am i doing wrong?
GeneHilbert	Date: October 31, 2005 @ 2:43 PM Are both assigned the same midi channel?
shadowself	Date: October 31, 2005 @ 2:51 PM That's odd - you've set it up like it should be. Reason does not rely on a MIDI channel per track to be selected first, but good thinking Gene. All one needs to do normally is to create the synth, which creates a related sequencer track below. If that track is selected and the transport is thrown into record mode, it SHOULD record your midi data. It's not like the keyboard controller is set up incorrectly, as you ARE able to play the synths as you said. Very odd.

infernal211283	Date: October 31, 2005 @ 3:02 PM Perhaps anything else, connections maybe? The midi keyboard is connected through midi/joystick port. The subtractor connects to a mixer and the mixer is connected to the hardware inputs 1,2.
infernal211283	Date: November 5, 2005 @ 9:19 AM Made some research about this oddity... The midi keyboard has to be active at the first configuration time immediately after the installation, if you select "none" option then, and connect the keyboard later you won't be able to record midi.
shadowself	Date: November 5, 2005 @ 10:19 AM Not even if you go into Edit \| Preferences \| MIDI and choose the MIDI device? When Reason is not "seeing" my keyboard controller, I usually just have to pop in here and select it as an input.
infernal211283	Date: November 5, 2005 @ 11:05 AM Not even then, I tried that before reinstalling, but it didn't solve the prob.
shadowself	Date: November 5, 2005 @ 1:51 PM What I find odd though is how you were able to play the synths in Reason if it was not seeing your keyboard controller.
