I want to build a modest home studio to channel my own creativity, but I really don't know where to begin and the advice I can find online is either way too general or way too specific.
I own:
MacBook Pro 15'' 2017
What I want is a keyboard/midi set up where I can use the keyboard as a piano at times and also use a synthesizer to create different sounds and beats - and then record everything on my laptop (and through my laptop). I've considered buying something like the Roland A-500Pro along with something like a Korg Micro Sampler - or skip the midi controller and buy something like a King Korg, but I don't really understand the advantages and disadvantages and I don't even know if either will do what I want it to do. I can't go into a store and discuss this with the clerks because they either don't speak English or they aren't very knowledgable. And most of the items will have to be ordered, so I can't even try them out.
Any suggestions or advice?
