Hi folks. I get tired of using Garage Band on my Iphone for a keyboard, to look at keys when studying music theory etc. I'm currently on Dave's Music Theory Study 2. Does anyone recommend a 25 key MIDI Controller in lieu of a big and costly full size keyboard?

25 is peachy

You can do a lot with a 25-key. I used one for a couple of years to lay down complex parts in recordings until I decided to upgrade to 49 to make things easier on myself. But for things like studying theory basics, a 25 should do just fine. 

As always, look at various models and read the reviews to help guide your decision.
