I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I don't find info...
I'm looking for a good usb keyboard controller to work with Cakewalk by Bandlab (latest release). I'm currently using a little Novation Launchkey Mini, which is limited but serves the purpose of playing notes into Cakewalk. I want to "upgrade" to a 61-key controller. There are a bunch on the market, and lots of them say they integrate with any DAW -- but when they list the DAWs they work with, they don't mention Cakewalk.
I'm not sure I even need a controller to "integrate" with Cakewalk. I'm basically fine with using my computer keyboard & mouse to do the actual DAW-controlling stuff, and it may well be that all I need is any controller that can send MIDI via USB (I think they all do).
That said, if anyone here has experience/recommendations about a controller that works particularly well with Cakewalk, I'd love to hear what you have to say.
A bit more info: I use Kontakt7 in Cakewalk, so any info pertinent to that, in this context, would also be appreciated.
