Also a CS would allow you to play two handed parts like montunos. In addition a CS could free up your left hand for other uses besides just hammering out the same chords the whole song.

Do you ever play any of those songs that just have two chords or have a repetitive chord progression like Oye Como Va? Wouldn't be nice to maybe be able to use the pitch bend without worrying about changing chords every four beats?

A CS would also be great for a keyboardist doubles on another instrument. Play through the tune once and then pick up your horn, guitar or whatever.

Gary, I think you being the vocalist/ entertainer you are could get very good use out of the CS. Play through a tune like Fever one verse, then you free to roam the venue with the wireless mic. A bet the ladies would be inviting you to there rooms for some more entertainment smile

In conclution, what's there not to love about the CS?


^This.

Many times I have found myself wishing for this functionality once Diki made me aware of it. With a CS I could play my sax or EWI and still trigger fills with my foot pedals. I can't see performing like this, but it would sure be handy for working on certain chord sequences and just for plain old foolin' around.
