    I imagine they would - they're just MIDI keyboards.

    Certainly the keys will send MIDI notes. As for the other knobs and buttons, you may well have to map those (assuming Reason has the ability to learn which knob/button is being pressed).

    yes it has that ability... I do it with an Arturia key lab 49 Essential at the moment... I asked because reason is not listed in the tech specs

    There is no specific "Host Integration" with Reason like some other DAWs (Logic, Live etc.) but those KBs do have MCU capability, so you can set them up to control transport using that capability. As for knobs, they can be mapped no problem, buttons are a different story, as they are not assignable to Midi CC so they cannot be mapped... just chimed in to clarify!!
