NanoPad + Reason Dr OctoRex trigger slices not loops?

Hello -

I have been watching videos on YouTube, learning my ReCycle and Reason's Dr OctoRex but I am at a total loss right now. I see these guys just plugging away on their pads remixing loop slices like crazy but I can't do it!

I have Reason 8 and a Korg NanoPad.

I want to load a loop and then play the slices of that loop using the Pads... but when I press a pad I change Loops! I can't get any Slice to play even clicking it with a mouse...

Again, I am at a total loss...

I used to do this with DrRex on Reason 3, but I missed all version from 4-7 and here I am back with 8 and OctoRex has me very frustrated!

Thanks for any help!
 
Doing some looking at it seems:
C1 is used to play Slice 1.
The Korg NanoPad is set to output C1 from Pad 1.
When I press Pad 1 Dr OctoRex sets Global Transpose to 12... but? The NanoPad sent Note C1? Why doesn't it play the slice?

edit: I have confirmed with MidiOX that I am sending a Note C1 from the NanoPad but Dr OctoRex doesn't seem to want to play slices.
