After the Nanokey, i thought id treat myself to the pad, and after a couple of hours trying to get reason to even recognize it! im still kinda stuck on how to get a beat down.

I click options then tick Remote override edit mode. ( is that correct? )
But what do i link the pads to?
the Channel 1 play button?
this works, i hit the pad & i can hear the kick, but how do i record it?!

or am i doing it ALL wrong?

Well , i do have the Padkontrol (korg) , i do use the NNXT for triggering (drum) samples ... , the redrum is a step-sequenser only ...

So how do i use the NNXT with my Nanopad?

im really lost with this, I just have no idea how to link these pads to anything in Reason to create & record a beat!

Can anyone explain what i need to do

You CAN lay down beats with a nanopad and redrum. I can do it on my ibook but i forgot how i set it up. am currently researching..
