Im sorry man but it sounds to me like your buddy was just lacking initiative.
hell...a yamaha RS7000 is a solid all in one, too...even the stock sounds are ok!
my advice for a 'live' HW setup? RS7k (sampler, sequencer, some synth sounds) and a VirusKB (fucking $900 now!)
oh...
you know..to the original post...first step? BUDGET
what can you spend?

For example, Roland JX-305's are $400-$500 used, Roland XP-50's marginally more. Akai S2000's about $450 and S20 (miniature version of S2000) about $200. Quasimidi Sirius and Raven are around $600. Nice boards, FYI.

hmmm...honestly....gosh...I cant do it!
it just starts adding up. I mean...I am one that believes you should PAY for software, so...that adds up too
really otta take a look at reason or orion, and then a VST host for mixing

you can get an mpc200 xl for same much money, but i wouldnt recommned it cause it doesnt have fx, synths etc. if you have apc you can always get a soft setup too.. or did everyone told you that already?

and if you go to www.harmonycentral.com under the classifieds theres a guy selling one for $800
go to www.yamaha.com and have a look for specs and features
the RS7000 is a synth, sampler, and sequencer all rolled up into one. It is pretty powerful and therefore a bit complicated, but..if you wrote all your stuff with IT for now..you could 'go live' no sweat later on.
all you would really need on top of it is a controller keyboard as the attached one isnt velocity sensitive...
