had a little look into it guys, would you say it would be best to get a seperate external sound card and midi keyboard..... or get a midid keyborad with soundcard built in........seen them for about £200 ish

 

thanks for all the advice anyway guys

Midid keyboard with built in soundcard would probs suit you better tony. It will be more portable.
