Hi, I am wondering if it's possible to purchase a keyboard that also has a MP3 player built in.

I want to use these (MP3s) in some instances as backing tracks.

Korg PA2x and PA800 both have optional MP3 players on board.

Liontracs MediaStation also has a wav/MP3 player as standard equipment..

I believe that Genesys Pro also plays audio..

I was thinking you meant arrangers..In fact there are many workstations from Korg, Roland and Yamaha that will play audio files..Like Fantom , JunoG and Sonic Cell from Roland..Triton series from Korg, and possibly the new Yamaha top models..

Thanks Fran for that. I am not sure about the Yamaha, at least as far as the PSR 900 goes.

The Korg PA2x and PA800 models might be the way to go.

Thanks again.

I found the following and it looks the biz, so will look out for one of these.

To add to the above, all Wersi OAS instruments have been able to play mp3 files since OAS 5 (2003) Wav files since launch OAS 2 (2000) and Video files from OAS 6 (2004)
Also from autumn 2003 a CD burner is integrated within the instruments (Previous versions had CD ROMs with burner optional) as well as USB 2. (Previous versions USB 1.1)
