Hi everyone, I am a looking to produce my own music and I was told to get a midi keyboard as I play the piano. Any suggestions on something extremely cheap? Right now I'm currently going off this:

I'm thinking of getting the akai mini mk 2

Let me know your thoughts!

For the size and features, that Akai is fine to get. All the midi stuff I worked with has been 88 key electric pianos or synths so can't really say from experience, just from what I heard.

I would look for a used digital piano. If you play acoustic piano, you will want weighted keys and velocity inputs.
Lots of folks get a digital piano for kids taking lessons then the kids stop. They then sell the digital piano.
