  1. The M-audio shit works, so if you find some used shit cheap get it, it may even have an audio interface (ozone I think they call it).

    Doing a quick search- this looked like something cheap and cool, no knobs, but you could do weird shit with it-

    But if you don't need a keyboard (still can trigger)- a benjamin will get you-

    Keep in mind, this is coming from someone who still rocks the Oxygen 8 mk1, so I know others will have good input

  2. depends on what yr doing with it. oxygen 8 is perfectly fine and cheap for keys / knobs, and you can find them (or ozones, like brian said) used for less than 100. the korg nano* (nanokey, nanopad) are cool and pretty cheap iirc.
