Default 25 or 49

I have a 25 key controller, it's a pita but when I have to fly, my 88 weighted controller is not an option. I can't think of any advantage a 25 key midi controller has other than portability... LPK 25 is way small and velocity sensitive... I bought two velocity sensitive controllers from my local swap meet for $10 up to you if USB connectivity is essential. Every small keyboard I've seen in the last few years has that anyway but if you already have midi in/out you can find tons of super cheap midi controller/keyboards super cheap. Consider if you have interest in other controls, sliders, knobs, TRANSPORT CONTROL. fortunately, these controllers are very cheap these days and Reaper will almost certainly work with whatever choice you make... Good Luck
