I'm using a Korg Prophecy for this sort of thing. As far as sounds go, 
it's "only" monophonic, but with a quite interesting range of noises 
available. As a controller, it's a pretty cool three octave velocity and 
aftertouch sensitive keyboard, with a nice selection of left-hand 
controls. They still seem to command about $500, though.
