Anyone here have one?
And if so, do you use Reason 2.5?

I have an Oxygen 8 and Reason 2.5, is that close enough?

haha, no... but you know suncaged? they kick ass! That and the fact that keytars are where it's at is why I picked that avatar. I guess it's a Roland AX1 Shoulder keyboard. MIDI controller I suppose. I'm thinking of picking one up

well my question was... The Ozone has an "Istrument In" on it. But I can't find any way for Reason to recognize that there is any form of information being sent to it when I plug my guitar into the keyboard.

Reason 2.5 has no audio in capability so you cannot record your guitar or anything else for that matter directly into Reason if this is what you are trying to do. The only thing you can do is use a recording program such as cubase etc and record your guitar and make a .wav/aiff file and then import it into Reason by triggering the .wav from either the NNXT or the NN19 sample players. Alternatively you could use a ReWire compatible sequencer such as Cubase, Logic 6, Ableton Live etc and record your guitar and sync a reason song along side it and then mixdown the whole thing into a complete song.

I already own a Roland AX-1 and it fucking rocks man! Great velocity curves, I love the feeling, the ribbon-style pitchbend, the modulation control, and you can really break the dimension of a keyboardist on stage.
Most of default settings don't work, even on Roland synths of the same years (!!!), so you'll have to figure out how to make your synth and the midi controller dialogue. Still eating my nails 'cos I can't make that Start/Stop sequencer button work on my Korg Triton Le seq :EEE.
