starting off

What is the bare minimum needed to produce a beat on this machine. All I have at this point is a laptop, a fast track pro audio interface, a keyboard, and studio headphones. (meaning no studio monitors)

Is this enough?

Thanks in advance.

1000 and headphones... hook up whatever you want as an audio source.

It's a sampler and a sequencer... you don't really need anything else unless you want to complicate it.
