If you want a midi player the Yamaha QY-70 and it's replacement the QY-100 are about as big as a VHS cassette. The QY-100 uses smart media for extra storage. The advantage of midi is the ability to change tempo or key on the fly. And some audience members who are expecting a live performance are put off with a cd or mp3 player but will buy into the QY-70 that you are occasionally fingering. The QY-70 is designed as a backing instrument with lots of patterns and great sounding voices. They go for about 200-300$ used.
