Hi kodilane, and thanks for the input.

Answer part 1: Take a look at part 3 - it all comes together. You're correct that it is more difficult, but there is a purpose. This method allows you to have 2 (or more) keyboards/drum pads/MIDI devices played through Reason and recorded simultaneously. If you do not do it this way, then the MIDI notes will not show up on the correct tracks when you are done recording.

Answer part 2: The key is to have your MIDI devices play on specific MIDI channels (or transform the channel like I do in this tutorial - it's just easier that way for me) and set up your MIDI tracks to listen to only one channel. The other methods you've seen use external MIDI tracks instead of software instrument tracks. External MIDI tracks, when used with Reason, cannot have a MIDI channel assigned and therein lies the problem. Clear as mud?
