I personally prefer a synth that has a keyboard; makes me feel like I'm still playing a physical instrument.

Anyway, I assume that you'd need some sort of audio interface, if you don't already have one, in order to run it into your computer.

No, no, not cables. I mean an actual audio interface, such as the Scarlett2i6 (which is like $150 on eBay). However, before you go and buy that, I'd look up whether you can hook that synth setup directly to your computer or not.

Does your computer have a MIDI port? If so, go to Radioshack (or whatever your local electronics chain is) and buy a MIDI cable.

Hmm...well, you could always buy a cheap MIDI controller (with an included USB cable) and plug that into your PC.

You probably need a MIDI controller to actually make this equipment work. Other than that, you'd need a DAW on your PC, which you have.
