Ok i was wondering if i should buy this keyboard for music https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00IWTZZ8S/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE  but i already have this keyboard https://www.amazon.co.uk/AKAI-Professional-LPK25-Portable-Controller/dp/B002M8GBDI/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1473362300&sr=8-5&keywords=akai i just need drumpads so do you think i should save my money and just buy this https://www.amazon.co.uk/AKAI-Professional-LPD8-Portable-Controller/dp/B002M8EEW8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1473362300&sr=8-3&keywords=akai instead of having to go out and buy a whole new keyboard with drumpads built into it?

Nvm misread. 

 

Just get the lpd 8 if you have the keyboard already.

Ideally I'd get a keyboard with all the functionality you need in one place. Less hassle, unless you have an interface to connect everything and don't mind reduced desk space (and lack of portability). I use an Arturia Keylab and have a friend with an Akai MPK, both of which are good choices (if you're still looking for other options as well). What DAW do you use?

If you got the room, I support TheoKAs friend. I have an Akai MPK 88. It is a beast, and works great for everything from pianos(weighted keys) to synths, drums or running tracks. I have also fiddled around with the MPK49, that is also awsome, and I guess more in the space/weight class you are looking for. I like having everything in one keyboard, but if you dont mind more stuff on your stand/desk getting an Lpd8 is a valid option.
