I recently found a M4L Patch that allows you to control Reason instruments within Live, which you may or may not have seen already:

It works great, except I don't know all of the parameters the 100+ MIDI CC's correspond with. I literally had to figure out down CC 1 = amp env, CC 2 = etc.... Other than that, it felt really great finally being able to perform with the Reason instruments I've made over the years.

This device is amazing - it's placed after the External Instrument Device and you can map 8 controls per device / instrument - All you need is the Reason or Record MIDI implementation charts found in your Reason / Record Documentation folder.

I've saved one of these per reason device, instrument, combinator etc - Pretty sure you can do the same with Komplete instruments and your external hardware synths

Full Automation of Reason / Record from Live - AMAZING!!

Oh cool, I just checked the MIDI implementation charts and all the information is there. I feel silly for not having checked the Reason documentation to begin with; I didn't even know I still had it. There are so many fun things that you can do with these in instrument racks with other effects, it's ridiculous. Thanks for the info!

Those MIDI charts are cool, endless fun - this made MAX Live purchase the most rewarding for me, for live performance it's a must!
