    I am looking for a small form factor midi controller that also has a lot of keys. Kind of like a Korg Microkey, except I am not going to buy another. I already owned one 3 times and it failed those 3 times.

    Any recommendations?

    M-audio keystation, I have 61 key but they also do mini keys.


    And this Xkey resides in front of me, i like that the keys only travel a few mill, great for inputting drums und unusually, the pitch bend is on buttons, can get some well freaky stuff going with that. I have the three octave, also have a 'midi plug out' for it, that they sell separately.
