With a Reason instrument selected, the Launchkey’s eight pots automatically control useful parameters.
Which parameters the pots control varies by instrument. With the Kong Drum Designer, for example, the
Launchkey’s pots (from left to right) map to Pitch, Decay, Bus FX, Aux 1, Aux 2, Tone, Pan and Level.
Pads Session Mode
With a Reason instrument selected and the pads set to Session Mode (hold Shift and press the Session
pad), the Launchkey’s 16 pads automatically control useful device settings. For the Grain Sample
Manipulator, for example, the pads (from left to right) map to Effects On, Phaser On, Distortion On, EQ
On, Delay On, Reverb On, Compression On, Key Mode setting (toggles between Poly, Retrig, Legato),
Porta (toggles between Off, On and Auto), Motion, Grain Type Select, Oscillator On/Off, Sample to Filter
and Osc to Filter.

Reason track.
