Questions Regarding MIDI Setup w/ Reason

Ok I'm pretty confused right now about MIDI Setups. I'm not all too sure. But I have some questions.

Say I have the following:

A MIDI Keyboard Controller
An Akai MPD16 USB Midi Pad Control Unit
and
An Evolution UC-33e Desktop MIDI Control Workstation

How would I get these to work to where I could use them all in Reason and keep them hooked up to the computer? Would I need a MIDI interface? Or would I just need some cables?

I have two USB inputs on my computer?

But would I need something like
an M-AUDIO MIDIsport 4x4 USB MIDI Interface
So I could hook all these things up and use them simultaneously in Reason?

Your akai pad should plug into the USB, so you don't need a midi port for this. IF your keyboard has a USB connection, then you won't need a midi port for this either. If your keyboard only has midi connections, then yes, you will need a midi interface.

The 4x4 you speek of has 4 ins and 4 outs. You only need 1 in at the moment. For expansion possibility, I would suggest the 2x2. Its a lot cheaper than the 4x4 which you don't need.
