Hi, Im just about to buy my first ever keyboard and need advice setting it up to my Powerbook G3.
Im thinking of buying the Novation KS5 or Korg Triton le (Any good?) Would these be OK for most types of music? As a beginner I will probably be experimenting with all type's of music but I am interested in 'Movie/Soundtrack' type of music. Do I need to buy a midi interface to connect the keyboard to the PowerBook, something like the MOTU Fastlane? My setup is PowerBook G3/400mhz (Pismo) 512 MB Ram OSX 10.2.6 Thank You Very Much.

Triton is good. good selection of sounds. I have Roland stuff for sounds. New Roland stuff is great You do not need a sequencer on a keyboard. They all are worthless to me with computer seq..rs stay with a small contoller cheap and buy as many softsynths as you can.
Good luck! G -------------------- _______________________________________________________
