How the ReWire channels are handled in Cubase SX
When you activate ReWire channels in the ReWire Device panels, they will become available as channel strips in the Mixer. The ReWire channel strips have the following properties:
* ReWire channels appear to the right of the track-based (audio and MIDI) channel strips.
* ReWire channels may be any combination of mono and stereo.
* ReWire channels have the same functionality as regular audio channels.
This means you can set volume and pan, add EQ, insert and send effects and route the channel outputs to Groups or Buses. All settings can be automated using the Read/Write functions.
Preparations for routing audio from Reason
When you route audio from Reason to Cubase SX, you make use of the Hardware Interface at the top of the rack. Basically, each output in the Hardware Interface is connected to a separate ReWire channel. Therefore:
* To take full advantage of the mixing features in Cubase SX you need to connect the different Reason devices directly to the Hardware Interface.
For example, if your Reason Song contains eight different instrument devices and you connect these to separate inputs on the Hardware Interface, they will appear on separate ReWire channels in the Cubase SX Mixer. You can then use the mixing facilities in Cubase SX to adjust volume and pan, add effects and equalizing etc. - individually for each Reason device!
If you instead connect all your Reason devices via a Mixer to the stereo input pair on the Hardware Interface, all sounds will appear mixed on a single ReWire stereo channel pair. While this works perfectly fine, you won't be able to mix and process the devices separately in Cubase SX.
