Looking for a new keyboard controller - need certain things

Post by hudkins »

I'm looking for a new keyboard controller. What I would really like is a 49 key controller with plenty of knobs that's (obviously) easy to use and map in Linux. Also, I don't want any drumpads on it. I have a drum controller I'm very happy with.

I'm finding plenty of newer keyboards with lots of knobs but I'm concerned about any extra configuration utilities that have to run under wine and may not work. Plus they all have drumpads and I really don't want to pay for functionality I'm just not going to use.

As far as older keyboards, the info is scant. What do you like to use? Is there a resource out there that gives good info? My google-fu isn't very helpful here.
