Depends on how many keys you want, aftertouch, hammer action, do you actually play or just stab at basslines and chords etc?
If it's the latter just go for a recent model Oxygen 49 as they're pretty robust and have some useful knobs and sliders etc. |

If you're doing more melodic stuff or improvisation a 61 would be better |

I'd argue that if you're doing that the Oxygen isn't right at any size as the key action is pretty ty. |

i'm not to worried about hammer's etc as i have a grand piano if i wanted all that.
so it's just a keyboard that i can play and feels not too bad |

well enough to get the bass and a melody going at the same time. Don't need 61 keys. |

so is the oxygen 49 3rd generation ok it looks if it will do the job |

E-MU SHORTboard Professional 49-Note USB/MIDI Instrument |

Steinberg UR28m works well. |

The key action is rubbish though. You can play it fine, but it's really spongy. No aftertouch either. Other than that it's fine. |
