HyperControl Display and Soft-Keys
The Axiom Pro display indicates what Device is currently selected within the Reason sequencer and how the encoder knobs map to that
Device’s on-screen parameters. In the illustration shown below, a 14:2 Mixer Device is selected:
The name of the currently selected
Reason sequencer track is displayed at
the top-left of the screen.
The upper-right corner displays either the type of device
(i.e., “NN-XT,” “Dr. Rex,” etc.) or the active channels of
a multi-channel selected Device (such as “1-8Pan” or
“9-14Pan” of a 14:2 Mixer as shown here.)
When a Page is selected using the Soft-keys, the
name of the page will be displayed here.
Any time an Axiom Pro
control is moved, the
corresponding Reason
Device parameter (and its
value) are listed on
this line.
The center of the
screen displays either
the names of tracks
that are under the
control of Axiom Pro
or the current position
of the encoders and
other controls of
Axiom Pro.
The bottom row lists pages and
options that can be accessed
using Soft-Keys 1-4.
As indicated in the top-right corner of the example screen shown above, this page
allows you to set Pan positions of mixer tracks 1-8 by using the encoder knobs. The
two columns in the center of the screen display the track names of your Reason session
(“Drums” through “Bass” in the example shown above). These tracks are currently
under the control of the Axiom Pro encoders: the left column (Drums – Tamb Loo)
always correspond to encoder knobs E1-E4 whereas the right column (Play Sam -
Bass) correspond to encoder knobs E5-E8. This same logic applies to all Reason
Devices—the left column always applies to encoder knobs E1-E4 and the right column
always applies to knobs E5-E8.
The Soft-Keys of Axiom Pro allow you to access up to four different HyperControl
pages that are listed along the bottom of the display (“Pan” “EQ” “Aux” in the example
shown above; Soft-Key 4 is not used by this Device). When a new page is loaded, the
encoder knobs automatically map to the parameters listed on the page. For example,
in the picture shown above, pressing Soft-Key 3 (Aux) accesses the Aux 1 page of
HyperControl and lets you use the encoder knobs to turn the control Aux 1 knob within
the Reason mixer that you’ve selected.
Some Devices have multiple pages of similar parameters. To access these parameters,
press the associated Soft-Key repeatedly to step through all of the available pages.
For example, the 14:2 Mixer Device has 4 auxiliary send controls as well as separate
controls for returns. Pressing Soft-Key 3 will step through the various Aux parameter
groups (Aux 1, 2, 3, 4, Aux Returns) before returning to the Aux 1 parameter again.
Note that if the encoder knobs have no assignment for the currently active Device within Reason, turning a knob will have no effect on your
Axiom Pro display or Reason Device.
✓Axiom Pro 25 users:
The amount of Soft-Key pages may vary slightly from that of Axiom Pro 49 or 61 since the 25 note version of the keyboard
does not have sliders. These differences are described throughout this User Guide wherever necessary.
✓ What about the Sliders on
Axiom Pro 49/61?
When using Mixer Devices (as shown above),
the sliders will remain assigned to Track levels
regardless of the page selected by the Soft-
keys. Since Axiom Pro 25 does not feature any
sliders, track levels can be changed by selecting
Soft-Key 1 (Level) and adjusting levels using the
encoder knobs.
In the case of instrument Devices, the sliders
map to various useful parameters within the
Device by default. However, once a page is
selected by pressing one of the Soft-keys, the
encoder knobs map to the specific parameters
associated with your Soft-Key (e.g., example,
pressing a “Filt” Soft-Key will assign the
encoders to filter-related parameters) and the
sliders will no longer be assigned. This allows
you to use Flipped Faders mode to control
encoder knob assignments.
