Dear Anyone.
I'm a wannabe New Age composer fighing a losing battle with the software.
I have Reason 3.0. I've downloaded a bunch of samples for it in .AIF format. I load the sample into NN-XT. I import the MIDI file - I use a separate notation prog. to create the MIDI files as I'm disabled and can't play a keyboard well. I'm all mouse! The MIDI file is a melody comprised of single notes to be played on a single sample, just to practice making it happen.
In the Sequencer window, which I've separated, I output the MIDI file through the NN-XT by selecting the NN-XT from the little white tab to the left of the MIDI track. So I should be hearing my track on the NN-XT sample. I see a little green line flashing by the side of the track. The 'Note On' light flashes every time a mark, which I take it represents a note, is reached by the playback line. I hear zilch. Complete silence.
So I loaded one of the tunes that came with Reason. Played perfectly. So that means the soundcard's set up correctly, right?
What am I doing wrong? I've put in every step I do so hopefully someone can see what I've missed out.
And secondly, once I can do a one-note tune on one sample. If I want to use LOTS of samples, do I have to open a new NN-XT for each sample or can I put them all in the same one? And if I put them all in the same one, how do I direct each track to a different sample?
I am perfectly happy to be directed to the right part of the manual. I don't mind reading manuals, I'm just useless at finding anything in them!
Please someone help.
Yours optimistically
Chris.
send me your reason song as a .rns, enclose samples and ill set it up and explain how its done, but first i gotta see what the set up looks like.
