A few words about Drum Sequencer support. Many of you may be surprised to discover that you cannot edit the sequencer from rsTouch. This is a limitation of the Drum Sequencer Player’s Remote support. It is my understanding that this is not an oversight by Propellerhead but is a result of how Drum Sequencer had to be built. Disappointing to be sure. So Redrum is still Propellerhead’s drum sequencer weapon of choice if you want hands on sequencer control. Check out rsTouch’s Redrum support if you have not already (or have forgotten about it).
The are also a few other issues with Drum Sequencer’s Remote support. The most troublesome is how the RUN button behaves. This has been discussed in other threads, and it affects not only control surfaces, but also Combinators and automation. rsTouch has a work around for this so that you can properly start and stop the sequencer from rsTouch but rsTouch’s RUN button does not show whether the sequencer is running; you will have to use your ears for that
This release requires new Reason support files (codec and maps) that must be installed. The most recent rsTouch support files are available from rsTouch Codec Installer. Download the installer to your Mac or PC, quit Reason (if it is running), then run the installer. If you do not update the support files on your computer then rsTouch will show an error.
rsTouch Pro offers full control of Reason’s Mixer and transport functions. Record and mix songs, and make sound setting and level adjustments easily with large, multi-touch, color-coded rotaries and faders. Edit send effects, insert parameters, and EQ settings, as well as adjust channel, pan and dynamics levels. A dedicated Master screen allows full adjustments of Reason's Main Mixer Master section. The Device page provides a gateway to controlling 132 Reason instruments, effects, Rack Extensions and VSTs, offering customized screens optimized for iPad use. A Performance page provides convenient keyboard, drum pad layouts, and 8 x 8 pad grid to play and record Reason synths and drum machines, or a page of 34 freely assignable fader, rotaries, and buttons that can be used to provide additional customized hands-on control.
