I'm not sure I'm being clear...maybe it's because what I'm suggesting can't be done.
The idea is to buy two pieces of equipment:
1) Low cost 61 key midi controller (call this a disposable item - something like the M-Audio Keystation 61 - which is about $160).
2) A high quality portable synth (small, but functional - it can be a desktop synth). This can have no keyboard or just two octaves. The keyboard on this synth is not relevant.
So, I'd use the midi controller as the keyboard for the high quality synth. Everything would plug into my MacBook Pro. If I were to move to another country - the high quality synth would move with me and the mini controller would find the trash can. Can this be done and any recommendations for the portable synth? I suggested a Micro Korg MK-1 - but after reading some reviews, I'm not sure that is the best option.
Thoughts? Sorry if this is confusing.
I think what you are looking for is a sound module. Like this:Roland JP-08 Synthesizer Module | Sweetwater
Sorry man, I finally think I got it.
