Ableton Live
Since Ableton Live does not listen for MMC messages, you will have to create a new preset in GeoMIDI.
Create a GeoMIDI Preset for Live

Open GeoMIDI and select a new "preset" from the drop down.
Double-click on the preset name and rename it to "Ableton Live".

Press "Update" to tell the Inspector to commit the changes to the button. 5. Press "Store". Repeat these steps for the Fast Forward(Value 101), Loop(Value 102), Stop(Value 103), Play(Value 104), Record(Value 105). Refer to the MIDI learn section of the Ableton Live manual to MIDI learn the parameters from the ControlDAW.

REAPER
24/12/13
Transport
REAPER does listen for MMC, and the ControlDAW sends out the following MMC commands: Rewind, Fast Forward, Stop and Play. The Record and Loop Buttons use MIDI CC. Loop: CC98 - In REAPER, Loop is called Repeat. Record: CC99 In REAPER, control Actions must be created before the Record and Loop buttons function. First, open REAPER and go to Actions and select "Show action list..."
Once the Actions window is open. Type in "Toggle Repeat". This filters out everything except the Action for the repeat command.
Use learn to map the Loop button to the Toggle Repeat Action in REAPER. To do that follow the next steps:

1. Press the "ADD" button. This brings up the "Edit Shortcut" window. 2. To fill in the Shortcut that will control the Repeat function, press the "Loop Button" on the ControlDAW. The parameters will automatically input. 3. For MIDI CC, change the mode to "Relative 1(7F=-1, 01=+1). This makes the Loop Button behave as a toggle switch. One press on, another press off. Press OK. This Action is now mapped. Repeat the above steps to map the Record button to the REAPER action "Transport: Record".
Sonar 8.5 - 64bit

Transport
