TB-303 & Reason 4.0 – Using Reason to Generate DIN Sync
Using classic synth gear with music software has never been easier. This video demos synchronizing a Roland TB-303 with Propellerhead Reason by using CV/Pulse signals routed through a MOTU 896HD interface.
Clock and Control Signals are generated in Reason Devices and converted to audio signals. The audio is then passed through a converter cable that connects to any Roland DIN-Sync device like the 303, 606, 808, 909, etc.

This is a demo of Peff using Reason 4.0 to control an Oberheim S.E.M. with CV and gate signals:
I had Reason sending Note CV and Gate CV signals out through the MOTU 896 into an old Oberheim CPS-1 / S.E.M. module. A bit of tweaking was required to get the note cv scaling set, but after finding the right settings, I had Thor acting as a MIDI to CV converter.
With this Thor patch, it’s possible to control analog synthesizer systems (in this case the Oberheim S.E.M.) from the Reason MIDI Sequencer, Thor Pattern Sequencer, Matrix Pattern Sequencer, any LFO source in Reason, and the RPG-8 Monophonic Arpeggiator. It should also be noted that because the Reason 4.0 sequencer is sample accurate, theoretically, the synchronization should be very solid when sending CV signals through the MOTU audio interface.
