I am looking into getting a Midi Keyboard to use with Reason 3.

Any ideas on which one I should get?

Get one with weighted keys, I like the old Korg Wavestation cuz you also get those dreamy pads you can layer over your reason tracks.

I use a Korg microKontrol.

My only beef is that the keys are too small.

They have a bigger version, I'd get that one instead.

That's a good one, or any of the Axiom from the M-Audio line. It's nice to have buttons and faders. Buttons for triggering loops, or turing effects on/off, and faders for controlling particular effect parameters and mixing levels.

Have you checked out Ableton Live? It's a really nice program to interact and trigger loops (audio & midi) on the fly. It' pretty rad and it works well with Reason.
