I have a Mac running Reason, Pro Tools, MPc 4000 and a few modules...

You everything in the MAC was set correctly now did you sync the internal sync page on the MPC???

If you are using a 2000xl or lower there is a screen you have to go into to turn on the Midi beat clock sync...Just set the page so that the Sync Comes in and out the same channel..And usually midi does not like

0 for some reason two machines never link up completey at zero.....

So start your sequence always ahead in the Midi beat clock..
Like on sync in the MPc set the time to 23.00.00.00
That way your sequence is 23 hours ahead, but still on the 1st bar..
