I'm a fairly good keyboard/piano player but have no room for either at the moment but do have a large desk so figure the above would be a good idea to play through my computer with the added bonuses of having a fable at recording. Have the oppurtunity of buying the above for £100 including the old korg synth software just as if it was new

is this a good buy? And will it do what I want, basically be a normal keyboard that plays through my computers speakers with an option to record.

Any help or advice greatly appreciated.

I have a K-61, did want a K61P but when I got there they had none in stock. The K61P has some in built sounds, mainly piano, and was about £170 about a year ago. It has not got aftertouch and the keys are unweighted. It is quite lightweight. I assume the software is the M1LE. I ended up buying the Legacy Analog collection in the end. One point to note is that I had to find the Vista driver on the net as the software was mainly for XP. Also be aware of latency if you are not used to soft synths, I.e the time between pressing the keys and the sound coming out.
