Interesting. Someone commented that my keyboard looks like a cockpit of a plane (I wouldn't know) and I told them that every little button has a purpose.

I use these buttons extensively. That is why they are there - and why the layout is ergonomic for live players. Switching up on the fly makes for a whole new level of playing.

Try everything, use every button. Make a song a song and not a boring, repetitive boom box....
