Midi input problem with Reason Adapted

[bandagedhand]

Hi. I have a Yamaha digital piano which i use as my midi controller.
When i open Reason Adapted on its own, the yamaha works fine for controlling the devices etc.

My problem is that when i open Reason Adapted through Pro Tools (using Rewire, of course), i get this message from Reason: "Midi input problem - One or several of the midi inputs could not be opened. They might be in use by another application. Open the preferences dialogue and check your midi settings."

So i open up the preferences and try to select the Yamaha and it tells me basically the same thing: that my midi input is being used by another program. This "other program" must be Pro Tools since its the only other program im running.

So whats the deal here? Do i have to disable the midi device in Pro Tools or something like that? Any help would be much appreciated...

For me the whole point of using plugins in Pro Tools is to have all midi and audio in one application. So I would disable the controller in Reason, and record all midi in PT.

i dont think i understand what youre saying PT Lover, because how would i control the devices in Reason then?

Through Pro Tools on MIDI and/or Instrument tracks. This is answered over in your identical post in the LE Windows forum. (check the duc terms of use about duplicate posting).
