Which midi keyboard to buy for cubase?

There are a few posts on this forum already covering similar questions, I suggest to start/search there first.
Just one recent example:

Answering your question properly will require many more details…

  • budget?
  • pref. for weighted action or synth-like?
  • is 25, 36, 49 keys enough for your usage? or you want the full 88-key bed?
  • pref. for a lot of knobs, faders, pads ?

If you’re new to all this (?) I’d suggest to start with a 2nd hand 49-key like the Akai 249 and see what you like and dislike about it.
With some luck, it could be exactly what you needed… but keyboard preferences is a very personal matter that often evolves over time, so it’s impossible to pick the “best” keyboard for someone else.
