Hi
I am really sorry if this kind of question has been asked before but I could not seem to download the keyboard buying guide posted previously on this forum.
I want to buy a keyboard for arranging and writing music/songs. I would need it to meet the following requirements.
1.On board recording facility.
2. On board metronome.
3. the ability to mix at least 4 tracks.
4. Both a vocal and guitar input facility so that I can download my externally produced guitar and vocal sounds to it and mix them with the keyboard sounds.
5. The ability to create MP3/4 files and upload them to my computer and ultimately to the internet and ideally the ability to burn CDs
6. Simple. Some time ago I bought a Korg M50 from a pawn shop, unfortunately it came without instructions, and understanding it would seem to akin to qualifying as an airline pilot. All I can use it for is for learning the piano.
Regarding budget I am fairly flexible but not superich. I have seen various demos of keyboards on youtube and the Yahama Genos seemed to have some pretty impressive sounds,- but all those buttons.. and the price..., i would much prefer something cheaper but still professional level of sound quality and easy to understand.
Any advice gratefully recieved.
