Basically, I am using Reason to do my drum tracks right now for a rock record, since my neighbors at my apartment wouldn't appreciate me using a live kit here. I am trying to play the drum tracks live, have Reason catch the MIDI input, and then export that drum track into another program to add all other instruments.

I just hooked up my electronic drum kit as a MIDI controller today and used the remote override mapping to get each pad to play the correct sound. When I play the kit, it sounds perfect in my headphones, but only two tracks (snare and ride) show up in my note lane. In other words, I hear the track as I want it, but when I go to play it back it only plays back two pads' input.

What do I have to do to make sure that what I'm playing will show up in my note lane in its entirety?

your using midi overide mappings... that's where it goes wrong for the input sequence for playback. Don't ask me why this is... it sometimes just 'happends'.

The redrum listens to a short range of notes to play the drums (C1 till A1 out of the back of my head, I don't have reason next to me so I can't fact check at it this point).

A work around would be using the NN-XT (use the remote programmer of the NN-XT) instead and map the drums accordingly to the midi input device your using. It works the exact oposite way, however you don't have to bother with the problem that certain notes don't show up while recording on the midi interface.

So, in short. Rig in an NN-XT, hammer on the keys to figure out what range they are triggering and then bring in the Bassdrum, Snare drum and set the root notes accordingly to where you want them to play.

There's an easier way to do it. Depends on what kind of electronic drum kit you're using to control reason. Redrum's note range goes from C1 and up, including the black notes as well. C1 equals note number 36. You should be able to modify the midi note that is triggered by each pad of your electronic drum kit, from its brain, all you have to do is match the correct note numbers of each pad to the specific note triggers in your redrum in reason.

Here's another workaround. There are default midi note trigger values from each pad in your electronic drum kit. Reason's default sequencer view for redrum is called "drum edit", and it will only let you see the notes that the redrum can trigger, which will be C1 (note#36) through A1 (note#45). What I think is happening from what your saying is that reason is in fact recording all of your notes, although you can't see all of them through the "drum edit" sequencer view. What you can do is switch the "drum edit" view to "key edit" view. You will find this switch right in the upper right corner of the sequencer window, right above the zoom in and out buttons. There are two buttons, a blue one and a white one. You want to press the white one, since the blue one is used to toggle through the automation edit. This will let you see the entire keyboard range of the clip you just recorded, and thus you will be able to select all recorded notes and drag them to where you really want them, within the C1-A1 range of the redrum.

Using override edits is not a good idea, because redrum channel play buttons are independent from the note number your pads are triggerring, so even if you're able to control redrum through these buttons, recorded notes will be different.

Hope that hepls!
