I've got a V5 that I've been playing from a piano keyboard, Yamaha
P90.. less than optimal. This looked interesting.

I clicked on the link, and while it appears to fill the bill, MIDI
controller w/61 waterfall-keys, inexpensive, I noted the following
quote:

"This sleek, compact keyboard is USB bus-powered and requires no
external power supply."

The purpose we would have is live gigging, no computer / USB bus in
evidence.. how would this thing receive its power??
