[quote=chulaivet1966]I'm so far from being the DIY type
I'll take on some "DIY" issues with music equipment/issues if I'm comfortable with my knowledge and approach to the problem.
But...in this specific context....time to upgrade and not avoid an
inevitable.
If I were you and excepted the fact it's time to upgrade your keyboard/controller I'd ask myself what midi options path suits you
personally.
Do you prefer having on-board sounds with your keyboard?
OR
Do you prefer just a controller to access the other midi options/patches that are available?
Me....and I've been doing this a long tome...prefer just the controller route and the outboard sound modules and midi patch bay.
Happy spending....
