Hi,
I would like to ask this question to those who use their kb live.
Which are for you the places of the work and the improvisation when you are playing in a live situation?

For example, when I play a song, I know exactely the moment when I will push the button for a fill-in, or the moment when I will change the sound of the upper part...
So, if I play this song 3 times one after the other, it will be three times EXACTELY the same song.

I am for a "scientific" work with my kb, because they are many buttons, and many occasions to make faults, what I can't accept on the scene.

Would like to have your opinion on this point of view.
Thanks a lot.

I think the most important feature I would like is a way to recover from a crisis situation in a live situation. Like - my fills have a lot of orchestration and are at times 8 or even 12 measures long. Due to moisture, the switches give problems and at times they trigger late, so if the fill starts a measure late (fast tempo) then I will want a function on my board to recover quickly from this situation.

Every night is an adventure. I seldom play a song the same exact way twice. Same beat, same tempo, but my right hand has a mind of its own.
