Kinda more than you were asking, I know, but I didn't realize until a year or two ago that I don't need an actual "midi controller" when I had so many other devices and software that could generate midi parts...it's almost easier for me to use Garage Band or whatever to convert to midi and then manually tweak the notes/midi chart to taste. Just a thought.

I'm using a basic one; THe AKAI LPK25 and haven't had a problem. However, I tend to use all I have to control midi including sequencers and such so that includes my tablet and Caustic.. pretty amazing for a $5 app, and digital keyboard. I also have a Strat with a Roland GK3 pick-up so I've been experimenting with assigned drums to my guitar strings and recording beats that way. Of course there is also GuitarPro6 and just writing out the drum parts and exporting to midi, Reason etc.
