I have a computer (may get Cubase but I have MAgix Music Maker at present and Making Waves) and a sampler (Korg ES-1).

Just wondering if you would reccommend building any other equipment up around this to make dance tunes (techno, tech-house, house, etc.) and what each bit of equipment would do.

Was thinking of a keyboard and a Novation Bass-station but not sure on the plus points and negative poinbts of eacvh and whether I need them at all. Oh yeah, also have the Propellerhead Re-birth demo which I was going to make sounds on and put them into my sampler.

Any ideas - thanks!
