midi keyboard controller choices

I am currently looking to get a midi keyboard controller for my setup, and have been stuck on three choices for a week now. The M-audio Axiom Pro 49, Akai MPK49, and Novation sl mkii 49. I have heard both good and bad things from people on all three of these and cannot decide. If it is any consellation i will be running Cubase with this controller.
Thanks for any replies.

Figured out MIDI, but some small glitches remain

I now have Cubase running not too badly, and all the MIDI is going in and out. I have finally gotten the cables plugged in so the signal travels all the way through. The biggest obstacle here was my master keyboard (Roland A90EX), because I did not realize that in order to use the MIDI THRU port, you have to have the signal coming in MIDI IN 2, not port #1, as most would assume (including me).

Trigger a Korg with midi? Possible?

Hi. Ive been making music for a while now but I'm feeling like stepping out of my comfort zone and trying something new. So far I've been making music either completely on my Korg triton studio or completely on nuendo. But here's what I want to do and don't know what the best way to do it is. I want to make most of my music on the Korg. For drums I want to use bfd2 as a vst plugin in nuendo.

Humidity control around musical instruments

It's that time of year again. Cold snap in the mountains of SW Virginia and NO moisture in the air. I keep room humidifiers running all winter so that my frets don't start popping and instruments start falling apart. I don't like piano humidifiers or guitar case humidifiers. I prefer to keep the whole room moist rather than put the moisture close to one part of the instrument.
