If you plan on using soft-synths or VST plugins, I highly recommend the
Novation Remote 25.  Besides a two octave keyboard, it has LOTS of
programmable knobs and an X/Y controller.   They are relatively expensive,
but you will appreciate the knobs if you will be designing your own
patches, or like to change effect parameters during performance, or
want a more natural mixing interface for your sequencer.
