Greetings:
I'd like to buy a MIDI keyboard, not a synth, just
a keyboard. I'm
looking for something with at least these
capabilities:
2 to 3 octave key span (small is good)
octave up/down transposition
velocity-sensitive
mod and pitch bend wheels
sends program change
aftertouch sensitive (channel AT is fine)
sends MIDI volume (cc #7)
Of course I'd also like to spend not very much
money. So, is there
something out there that fits my needs ? Which
inexpensive MIDI
keyboards are popular with LA* people ?
I use one of these:

I'm not a fan of the roland push modulators, but it
has plenty of other
controls to make up for it.
Its USB/serial MIDI, and if you use it as a USB
device the serial MIDI
holes appear as interfaces to the PC, which is
handy.

I too use an Edirol PCR-(M)50. It's truly
plug-and-play via USB and I think would be pretty hard
to beat for the money.
