So you want a synth module to make noise via midi from your Korg?
If you want to play chords, you’ll need something polyphonic - 4 note polyphony is the bare minimum but quite limiting, 6+ is better. Budget and what kind of sounds would narrow it down further... There’s a huge range of analog and digital options at the moment.
That’s confusing ;)
Is your current keyboard midi over USB or traditional five pin midi? If it’s five pin midi ... that should work with all the stand-alone MPC samplers (I believe). The MPC will also sequence (again, assuming the MPC model is a standalone MPC sampler model rather than one of their sample players or controllers).
The Keystep is a hugely popular keyboard+sequencer. I think it’s 2 and a bit octaves. Maybe you want a full size keyboard?
Any five pin midi-out synth can also function as a midi controller. Any will do. Something like a Yamaha Reface would be good. I bought an ancient Kawai K1 digital synth to use as a controller because a) it costs the same as a new controller-keyboard b) it sounds like a terminator.
