I'm wanting to experiment with production, samples and remixing.
Any suggestions?
Around the £100 mark or less
Seen these...
M-Audio O2 rrp $179 USD
CME UF5 rrp £114 GBP
Any others or experiences with these?

i just ordered an ESI KeyControl 25 for about 85 eu from thomann.de seems like a budget version of the MAudio.
havent received it yet - but looking forward to tweaking around a bit.. will let you know if your interested.

I can second the KeyControl. Good idea with the 8 scroll-wheel thingies as well.

ok - will do, but still waiting for the package - i think thomann may have bungled my order (they're usually very good and german about that kind of thing!)

sorry for taking forever to reply - it turned out the keycontrol unit has been discontinued - or bought by a different company or something. basically thomann couldnt sell it to me, but offered an alesis photon 25 instead for the same price.
i got it last week and have been real happy with it. the knobs have a nice feel to them and with the 3 layers for each knob, theres alot that can be assigned. .
software synths have never been so much fun before..
