I am currently learning drums now. I am planning to get a lectric keyboard too, to just simply play around the beat. Is it worth sacrifising my PSP to buy the keyboard?

And how much acctualy does a good electric keyboard worth. ( Must have cool beats, tunes and stuff...)

Sacrifice anything you have to fulfill your dreams and passion..

If owning a PSP won't help bringing you to the next level, sell it then..
Get a keyboard instead..

How is it you plan to use the keyboard as an accompany to your drumming actually?

I personally would recommend you get music softwares then..
That would be a 1000 times more exciting then a keyboard!!
You get more and you'll learn more..

I am getting the keyboard to just play around and to accompany beats to my drum.

But wat music software can i get? Is it free or wat?

i'd keep the PSP. you won't get a lot of money by selling off the psp, and buying a good keyboard will at least need around rm1000+.

if i'm you, i'd download some midi files, convert them into mp3, save them into the mp3 player. then get a set of speakers that's capable to playback music loudly to accompany your drum playing, or simply playback using headphones and jam along - that way you can protect your ears from loud drum sounds and can hear the music loud and clear (but remember don't play the music too loud!). since you have mp3 player and laptop, you can use either one.

the only problem is the sound of the midi will be very "fake", because the microsoft intergrated midi sound library is pretty low quality. however, spending below RM1000 for a keyboard will not bring you further either.

fortunately, some softwares are able to playback the midi file with much better quality sound. consider this one:

should be going for around USD$100 anywhere but dunno in malaysia got or not. it's a software that's why you can save a lot. much better than spending on the keyboard for inferior sound.

pm me if you need a little more help.

Keep the PSP...Find a software cheaper and better then the keyboard will ever be...

if you only need beat, you should exchange your psp for a nitendo DS
