I've been a pianist for quite a while now. I have an electric piano and lately, i've messing with the limited pads, sounds, been modulation controls,etc to get the shoegaze/ dream pop sounds in that piano.

I'm looking for a workstation or synthesizer that can create many different dreamy sounds that i'm looking for (not just presets, i want knobs,etc) and something in the synthesizer that can create my customized drum loops. Does such workstation or synthesizer exist? If so, what are some good and relatively inexpensive ones?
