I should also add that my recommendation stands even if you don't want to record. With the FLStudio demo, you cannot save projects so recording would be somewhat pointless anyway. I'm recommending the DAW / VST approach because it will make it easier to play, and give you the fundamentals so that you'll be in a position to make better hardware purchase decisions later if you decide to pursue the hobby.
Playing a single sound at a time is not really making or even emulating trance. For every trance track you hear, most of what you're hearing is a result of the production process rather than someone physically playing a keyboard. Playing a keyboard is good for putting down riffs / chord progressions etc, but many of the greats "play" most of their trance using their computer mouse and keyboard.
Hope that makes sense. I know a lot of it is information overload when youre starting out, and I'm only providing one perspective (one that requires hardly any money to get started).
