If for some odd reason you are forced to place your gear backstage (never again!), then having a keyboard with it's own sound is pretty important.
But you play in a band, and I see no reason why they won't let you have your modules right where you need them.
BTW
Ifyou're use a multitimbral module, like the JV1080 or Alesis QSR or Motif rack, the Roland A controllers let you do their own midi splits, layers,midi transpose, program changes, volume/pan info and more. All of the settings are then stored as a performance, so you can reconfigure the settings in the modules right from your controller.
That would only work with modules that respond to standard midi control messages like volume,pan,PC,FX sends etc. If you're dealing with a module that uses FX buses/pan buses and has bizarre multitimbral setup (like Z1), then it makes things a lot more difficult and you'll have to edit and store using the module itself.

using the roland as a controller with the motif rack sounds like if that may work for me for live playing. Now, to get more rediculus, are there controllers that would allow me to sequence using the sounds of a rack?
