Is Reason using real power to control the VCOs of the synthesizers on the rack? If so, that would be really cool, lol.

Kinda, it is running right off the PSU in your computer. Wink

Nah, EdisonRex is right. This is all digital so there are no analog control voltages.

Most decent softsynths can send and receive midi data. You can translate midi data into control voltages using external gear.

You can use something like this:

This means you can send midi from your computer to an analog modular synth.
