SOUNDS, DEVICES AND PATCHES

Opening files

When you have navigated to the desired folder (on your hard disk or within a ReFill)

and located the desired file, you open it by double clicking it in the file display or by

selecting it and clicking the OK button.

As described earlier, patches and samples are loaded directly upon selection, so

clicking OK doesn’t actually “open” the file, it simply confirms the selection, and

closes the Browser dialog.

About browse lists

When you click OK to open a file from the Browser, the file and folder list shown at

that time is memorized for that device. This is called a “browse list”.

For patches (and to a certain extent samples) this list provides a specific functionality:

D The browse list is what applies when changing patches using the Next/

Previous Patch buttons on the front panel of a device (or from patch se-

lectors on a control surface).

It is also the active browse list that is shown on the patch list opened by clicking in

the patch name field for a device.

D For samples, the browse list applies when changing samples using the

Next/Previous Sample buttons on the front panel of a sampler device.

What can a browse list contain?

D When you confirm a patch or sample selection by clicking OK in the

Browser, the resulting browse list will include the files contained in all

currently open folders in the Browser.

If you open the Browser again for the same device, the same file and folder struc-

ture is shown.

D If you save the current song and reopen it, the items in the browse list

will be shown as a “flat” list, and the “Where” pop-up field will show

“Document Browse List”.

In such cases, the Browser will show the “Parent” column, listing the names of the

containing folders. The Where pop-up will also contain the item “Go to parent

folder” for a selected file.

D A browse list could also be a Search result, or a Favorite list.

Favorite Lists provide a way of controlling/filtering which patches or samples will

be available on a browse list for a device - see below!

! Note that if you opened a patch after having used cross-browsing (see

page 38) or used the Search function (see page 39), the active browse list

could contain patches in different formats, and stepping through patches

from the device panel could change the device type.

Using Favorites

Favorites provide a way to group and order files that may be physically located any-

where on your local drives. Any file that can be loaded in Reason (songs, patches,

samples etc.) can be added to a Favorites folder. Only shortcuts to files are added -

the original files aren’t moved.

This is particularly useful for handling patches. By adding the patches you need for a

given situation to a Favorite list, you can determine exactly which patches will be se-

lectable for a device, and in what order. You can then sequentially step through these

using patch select buttons on your MIDI keyboard or control surface device. See

page 41 for a practical example of this.

D To add a New Favorite List, click the “New Favorite List” button.

An empty folder is created, named “New Favorite List”. The Browser list remains

unchanged. If you double-click the folder you can type in a new name for the list.

D To add a file to the Favorite List, select it in the Browser and drag it to the

Favorite List folder.

You can also select multiple files using standard selection techniques - [Shift]

and/or [Ctrl] (Win)/[Command] (Mac) - and drag these into the folder in the same

way.

D By selecting the folder, the currently selectable contents of the Favorite

list is shown in the Browser list.

What is selectable/shown depends as usual on the current Browser mode. If you

select a Favorite List folder that contains samples, these will only be shown if the

Sample Browser is selected.

D When a Favorites list folder is selected in the Browser, an additional

“Parent column” is shown (just like Search results), listing the name of

the containing folder for each file in the list.

Files in a Favorites list have an order, and can not be sorted by clicking the column

headers. However, they can be reordered by using drag and drop.

D To remove a file from a Favorite list, open the list, select the file and

press [Backspace].

This removes the shortcut only - the original file isn’t affected.

D To remove a Favorite List, select it in the Favorites section and press

[Backspace].
