Help Me Buy a Gift for my Boyfriend His job recently began requiring a lot of travel, which is keeping him away from the studio. He has his laptop and a very small Akai, but I want to get him something else to help him create while away. Sanity is important after all. This is when I should tell you I literally know nothing about writing music or the technology, so yea... I need help :S I looked around a bit, saw the Korg Kaossilator Dynamic Phrase Synthesizer, and got confused. Is this just a toy or is it useful? It seems limiting since he can't add sounds to it. Is there something similar in portability, but more versatile? Any ideas or suggestions would are greatly appreciated. I would love to drop a grand on this, but I have keep it within about $200.
