KONTROL49
Requirements/Setting up:
• The KONTROL49 can be connected via USB or standard MIDI connectors.
• If connected via USB, you need to make sure that both the MIDI In ports are prop-
erly selected (one for the keyboard and one for the controls).
• If connected via MIDI, you only need to select the "Controls MIDI In Port" - make
sure the "Keyboard MIDI In Port" is set to "Not selected".
• Reason will automatically find the KONTROL49 if you click the Auto-detect button
on the Control Surfaces and Keyboards page in the Preferences (a two-way MIDI
or USB connection is needed).
• When you add the KONTROL49 (manually or using auto-detect), it will automati-
cally be set to a custom mode for use with Reason.
About the controls:
Reason makes use of all encoders, sliders, pads and buttons except for the octave
shift buttons. The program will also control the displays on the KONTROL49, show-
ing parameter names and values.
About the default mapping:
D The main LCD display shows the name of the device currently controlled
by the KONTROL49.
D The "Setting" and "Scene" buttons are used for Target Previous/Next
Track (move the master keyboard input up or down in the track list).
D For devices with patches, the "Message" and "Exit" buttons select the
previous/next patch.
D The joystick is not mapped to any parameters by default, but you can as-
sign it to any items in Reason by using Remote Overrides.
There are two separate control surface items for the joystick; X-axis and Y-axis.
D The “Hex Lock” and “Enter” buttons are mapped to Stop and Play on the
Reason transport panel, by default.
D The main encoder is mapped to master level, where applicable.
D For many devices, the pads are simply mapped to buttons on the device.
D Mixer 14:2
The "SW1" and "SW2" buttons determine which mixer channels are controlled
(1-8 or 9-14).
Pad buttons 13-16 select variations, determining what should be controlled by the
encoders (pan, send1, send2 or send3). The upper pad buttons serve as mute
buttons.
D Line Mixer 6:2
The "SW1" and "SW2" buttons determine whether the encoders should control
pan or sends.
D Subtractor
The "SW1" and "SW2" buttons select variations (Filter & Amp, Osc or Mod) for
the encoders, sliders and pad buttons.
D Malström
The "SW1" and "SW2" buttons select variations (Filter, Osc/Mod A or Osc/Mod
B) for the encoders, sliders and pad buttons.
D NN-XT
You can use the pad buttons to play the sampler. They are mapped chromatically
from C2 up.
D Redrum
Only drum sounds 1-8 can be controlled.
The "SW1" and "SW2" buttons select variations. There are four variations: Pitch/
Play, Length/Play, Pitch/Pattern and Length/Pattern. In the "Pitch" variations, the
encoders control the pitch of the drum sounds; in the "Length" variations they con-
trol the length. In the "Play" variations, you can play the drum sounds with the
pads. In the "Pattern" variations, the pads are used for selecting pattern and bank.
The sliders always control the levels.
D BV-512 Vocoder
The sliders control the band levels - use the "SW1" and "SW2" buttons to select
which vocoder bands to control.
D Matrix
Pad buttons 1-8 select pattern, pad button 9 controls the Run button, pad button
12 controls the Pattern Enable switch and pad buttons 13-16 select bank.
