You haven't done your homework...Not everybody wants to spend big bucks for jr or sis to practice their piano lesson scales on. You must be shopping in the Consumer Electronic Stores with vcvr's and tv's nearby. Check out a decent music store or music catalogs website. Have you seen the DJX, analog style sounds and controls, fat sounds if you plug it into a decent amp and speakers. Lots of bang for under 350 bucks. With a midi sequencer like Cubase VST and and some time, you's be able to make some great music. With HD recording in VST, the DJX could do all of the sounds.
