I use reason 10 and reaper
In reason I use kong drums, and have been getting into soft synths. So:
-16-pad drum for Kong, in rows of 4 if possible (for accuracy)
-Reasonable amount of knobs or faders (not sure what the standard is? I'd hate to have some parameter knobs left without a controller on the keyboard)
-polyphonic after-touch
-not sure if this matters on midi keyboards, but a reasonable amount of polyphony? like 16 or more
-about 49 keys or mid 30's
-about $300 range
