as far as im aware you need a midi for reason
infact thats the only reason i even bought a midi

ah forgot something, u need virtual midi cables, eat this

http://www.nord-com.net/akemlein/filetrans/tools/MapleVMC/MapleVMCv356/

this gives u 4 midi ports on ur PC.

then sweetpianao --> tab devics --> check midi out 1, then start Reason --> option --> set control instruments, Reason should detect it automatically. Nice if u are on the road and have no keyboard

or try a virtual keyboard like BOME:

This is also useful:

Here's a tutorial on using BOME with Reason:

That should sort you out until you can get hold of a real keyboard.
