Beginner with a Few Needs

[rcasanola]

Hey I'm new to the whole piano purchasing thing, I have a couple of guitars and I've been playing a bit of piano at school but I'm ready to buy my own. I have a few things I need the piano to do though...

Must be able to:
. be played without a computer (so it has speakers and is not just midi)

. work with my Mac in Garageband/ Logic Pro (so it also can be connected to a computer)

. be under $500

I'm mainly using it for music production/ beat production and also my vocal warm ups.

Thanks very much for your time!

Have a look at the Yamaha PSRE-333 or 423

Alternatively a Casio CTK5000 or 6000

The 423 looks promising. Appreciate the feedback bro!
