How can I map my controller so that eg. my “knob 1” always controls filter, etc. and save these settings? Thank you.
mapping knobs in Reason
You will have to write a remote map that includes a section for each instrument you want to have mapped. Also if your controller is not supported out of the box by Reason you will have to create a Remote codec for it as well.

I have tried many time to create a codec for my X-Touch and for some reason i can not seem to get my head round it . Can someone please make a video on this subject ?jam-s wrote: ↑27 Jul 2020You will have to write a remote map that includes a section for each instrument you want to have mapped.

For the X-Touch I would start working from this codec: www.jaexx.com/blog/reason-custom-behrin ... ap-layout/
An alternative approach to Remote is to program your controller to send midi messages as per the midi implementation chart - https://a.phcdn.se/Reason10/Manuals/Rea ... _Chart.pdf. Eg. Midi cc#74 is typically Filter Freq for Reason stock devices.
This seems like a very logical approach. However, I have zero clue as to how to go about this. Any clues as to how to go about this? My controller presently is a M-Audio Control 25.

Most controllers have an edit mode where you can customise a patch so it sends selected parameters. You could for example create a patch for each device you would like to control, that includes custom names (if available) for each parameter and pages if these functions are available for your controller.
I am not familiar with M-Audio but a quick look at the CTRL49 manual on the M-Audio site suggests you can use either Control Edit Mode with VIP, or Midi Edit Mode - with both approaches being customisable. You need to dive into the manual...

I have the behringer x-touch . I can assign all of those faders , buttons and rotaries knobs to the functions in Reason . I want to be able to set my controller up using Reason and save those settings for new projects .Carly(Poohbear) wrote: ↑28 Jul 2020Nektar P series has function keys you can reassign built in.
TBH you can do that with any standard midi keyboard (with controls of course) and any DAW.
Have you tried setting up a Mackie Control device as a controller in the preferences, and attached this to the X-touch? This should provide Mackie HUI functionality (bi-directional). It will not provide complete integrated control but should give you access to the Fader, mutes and solos for banks of 8 channels - as long as the X-touch is in Mackie HUI mode.Djstarski wrote: ↑28 Jul 2020I have the behringer x-touch .

Edit: think I missed the point of the function button thing. never mind...
Thanks for your help . i`ll try this out .Sterioevo wrote: ↑28 Jul 2020Have you tried setting up a Mackie Control device as a controller in the preferences, and attached this to the X-touch?

It is time consuming and frustrating.
It is also most definitely beneficial and rewarding.
My advice is to learn all functions/capabilities of your midi controller, chunk it down and digest bit by bit. This will hold you in good stead not only with your existing controller, as well as any others you may use in the future. Once you get the hang of it you won't look back.
After that have a look at Remote if you are still searching/looking - it is a much deeper rabbit hole.
