Hi everybody! I have worked for years in the analog/real instrument music production field and I'm a kind of new to the sampling/digital music world. As I wish to start with the best possible equipment, I'm searching for a workstation/arranger keyboard around 1000€ and I have reached so far the powerful Casio MZ-X500 but unfortunately I got that it seems not having an important feature I need. In this case I ask for your recommendations on: A keyboard with all the features of MZ-X500 PLUS having a high quality INTERNAL AUDIO INTERFACE wichh is CAPABLE of transmiting everything being played (or already recorded in the machine) in SEPARATED lines as Audio and MIDI data directly to the DAW in form of a complete project. * By everything I mean: . What I play by left and right hand and on the PADS in seperated lines as Audio/Midi. . The drum/percussion with all its sounds in seperated lines as Audio/Midi. (bass, snare, high hat, crash etc.) . The accompaniment with all of its sounds in seperated lines as Audio/Midi. (bass, piani, string etc.) Well I know it may seems like a dream wish, but if it is so please wake me up! and let me know what would be the closest thing to this dream around 1000€. If the MZ-X500 can do some of these functions by doing some tricks, please let me know. P.S: I have looked into Roland FA-06 and it seems it has those functions MINUS the great feature of automatic accompaniment. Of course it has the drum styles with intro/fills in/einding options, but it has no full accompaniments with chords able to play by one/three finger. If it's possible to make our own (or to download others self-made) full accompaniment styles and play chrods along them in like MZ accompaniments in FA-06, please let me know. Many thanks in advance Nick
