Guess it's time to pick up a midi controller so I can actually work - been messing around with Ableton for a while.
In general, I'd like to keep it under $300. After some research I've narrowed down my options to these three: Novation Impulse 49, Akai MPK49 and Arturia Experience 49. Any recommendations? Pros/cons, suggestions and alternative options are more than welcomed! UPD: after some considerations, I went with Novation Impulse. Keys feel good, as I wanted to. Trying to make it work with FL Studio for recording writing as I haven't had time to do this. Still lots of thing to try and explore. Last edited by Joseph Dale; 04-27-2020 at 08:54 AM.

I went with a Beatstep Pro, but most people use it as a hardware controller and sequencer, which it's terrific for. I've only used it for an hour in Ableton as I don't really like using DAWs at all. Anything Arturia is just really well built, easy to use, and cheap as hell for what you actually get.

If you want a keyboard any of you mentioned would be great. If you want a great midi controller for Ableton it's Novation's Launch Control XL. I highly recommend it. Paired with Launchpad - it's a great control of the whole session, both channels and midi input.
