Hi guys, Just had an interesting question, what do you think is your preferred budget 25 key? M-audio Oxygen 25 (New name oxy 8) Akai MPK, or any other alternative? What do you think is the best on the market right now?

either mpk 25 or axiom 25 from m-audio
Very budget...
Mpk mini for me, love it.
There's also the Alesis Q25 which is cheap and small but has full size keys rather than mini ones.
MPK mini. Bought one about a month ago and don't have a single regret.
100% the MPK mini.
While the MPK mini is a wonderful piece of kit you gotta remember that it does have half throw keys and as a result isn't really suited for real playing. But if you just want a midi controller and are going to use it for a bit of production it's completely fine.
Another downfall of the MPK mini is the knob size. Although i know there is a thread somewhere here about replacing the knobs with a decent set.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Pissed me off with my lpd8 and it will again when I find another use for it.
