I've been making music for about a year now w/fruity loops & I've been getting alot into sampling jazz & neo-soul since I can't play keys for shit. Discovering new music & turning it's elements into your style is a lot of fun. And honestly, I just want to be able to make music with hardware because I'd hate sitting in front of a computer screen for hours when making music. It just irritates the living hell out of me. I want to be able to carry a hardware machine around if I'm going somewhere & just let my brain break out of my skull & splatter some creativity into the music. Portability & shit, you get me?
I'm only 13, though, turning 14 in June so I can't get a job & if I do, it'd only count as community service & stuff so I'm on a DESPERATELY low budget. My parents can't afford it either & I'd feel guilty as **** if I even considered asking them to help me pay for shit that's like over 300 bucks.
I've looked through websites like Best Buy, eBay, Amazon, TigetDirect, Newegg & I haven't found any luck.
I only have about 175 bucks at hand that I've saved over several months so I'd love it if any of y'all can help me out and link me to some pages that sell the cheapest MPCs/MPKs. Anything is fine w/me as long as it works with MIDI (which I assume all of 'em do).
Thanks in advanced.
