Hello, I would see if anyone can help me use the M50 divided, in an area with sound Reason and another with a program of the M50. because I could not make the sound of Reason occupies only an area of the keyboard.
would appreciate your help ...

Using M50 as midi controller in combi mode
Hi,
to create a Combi that plays a M50 sound and a sound from external source (Reason):
*First you must go to P3 Timbre parameter page and select the midi status for timbre 1: INT = it plays M50 internal sound. The midi channel should be 1. (Global midi channel as default = 1)
*Then for timbre 2, select status EXT or EX2 and set the midi channel to 2. The same channel must be set in Reason. Otherwise it will not receive the command.
EX2 option lets you send also bank change command (MSB & LSB messages) out from M50. If you don't need to, use EXT.
*The rest of the timbres should be set to off, or if you need more sounds from M50, repeat the first step for timbre(s) 3...4....5....
*The keyzones (splits) are set in P4 page - "zone". You can hold enter and touch the desired key.
I hope this helps.

i am now successful to get the sound from XV 3080 by setting timble 1 to EX2, for example, i created the sound like Octave Piano combine 2 sound , one Nice piano from Roland and one from Korg and save it, the problem is when i switch to another comb then come back to Octave Piano, my comb gets no sound from Roland, what should i do then?

Is the next combi to where you change, a Korg preset, or a preset you modified by adding a Roland sound to it?
If so, my first thought is that the next combi sends an unwanted midi message that "freezes" Roland. (Had the same weird problem with Triton TR and JV-1010.) Karma, arpeggiator or drumtrack of combi can send something that Roland doesn't like... Is it so, that after the error has occurred when you change the patch manually from Roland to the next patch, it plays again normally = receives midi again? If it is like that, I might be right.
Try to make couple of more fresh combis that use Roland sounds too, change between them and see if the problem disappears. Or try to set a midi filter in Roland's system settings so, that it receives only the commands that you need it to receive. There are also midi filters in Korg Global, could try fiddling those too. Each combi has it's own midi filters as well.
If these don't work, let's see if some other solution comes up.
