I've used a wide variety of midi controllers, and, like Skaligo, I think M-audio is the best combination of affordability and quality. Weighted keys may or may not be an issue for you. I've found that lots of people can get by just fine with the 'weightless' keyboard keys in lower cost models. And... they cost much less. Greer, if you're just testing the waters, you might want to spend less, get a cheaper model, and find out what you want from there, rather than dropping 300 dollars and finding out that it's not really what you're after.
