Hi all,

I discovered this site over the weekend and figured why not join, I love my Korg!

I've played piano about 15 years, guitar about 9 and have been dabbling with bass and drums the last two.

I bought a Korg Triton Le about 3-4 years ago and that's my main gigging keyboard. I did, however, buy a microkorg today and I have to say the learning curve is quite up there, but not as bad as I thought. I'm very new to the world of MIDI, though.. I've only used the Triton for piano sounds and some various string type sounds for gigs.

I really want to get into sequencing, mixing, etc so I'm still debating whether I should go for the R3, X-50 or even (gasp) the Alesis Micron... I've heard great reviews on the Micron but the lack of buttons kinda worries me

I worry that the mini-keys will become annoying because of my heavy piano background, but so far, I'm having a blast.

I'm sure I'll browse the forums and ask random questions

I've been looking at R3 vids all day and I'm thinking of exchanging my microkorg for it... decisions decisions!

I play in a friend's cover band every now and then, but work keeps me too busy to do anything dedicated
