Landing dials#
The landing page opens on Volume, Sound, Pitch and Mod. Each dial has more banks behind it: press and turn a dial to step through them. ID8 has 3 banks. Where a cell lists more than one parameter, tap it on the strip to choose which one the dial turns. See dial banks.
| Bank | Dial 1 | Dial 2 | Dial 3 | Dial 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Volume | Sound | Pitch Bend | Mod Wheel |
| 2 | – | Category / Preset | Parameter 1 | Parameter 2 |
| 3 | – | Sound A / B / C / D | – | – |
Pages#
The keys on the landing page open ID8's sections. Each page puts that section's controls on the four dials, labelled with the parameter names Reason gives its Remote protocol. Switch keys light up when the setting is on.

How it follows#
Select an ID8 in the rack and the Reason Remote codec, installed during setup, tells the plugin which device has focus. The deck opens ID8's landing page, and values go both ways: turn a dial and ID8 moves, change a control in Reason and the touch strip follows.
Which edition#
ID8 is in both editions: free in Reason Remote Lite, which follows 8 devices, and in Reason Remote ($20), which follows all 27. The pages below are the same in both.
