What's a good starter board

[gec]

Hey, I have been producing tracks solely using loop based music, but I would like to begin using the Keyboard. Before I go out and spend a ton of $$$$ what we be a good board just for starters. I would like to use it with some of my software though so it has to be compatible. Suggestions?
