I'm new to MIDI and deciding between two very basic MIDI controllers right now - similarly-priced M-Audio and Yamaha USB controllers. The M-Audio comes with a lite version of Ableton, and the Yammerhammer comes with a lite version of Cubase. Consider that I'm graduating from Adobe Audition 2...

Looking for a product suggestion with a specific need. What I want is a small wireless condensor mic that will be used to mic impromptu percussion. Imagine a hollow wooden box. I want to mic the inside of that box without wires so that when I beat on it, I hear the noise on my amp/PA. Ideas?
