I am taking the KMA on it's first gig today. I'll post some pics and maybe a few songs this evening. Should be a lot of fun.
Wonder if the crowd will miss the T4?

Hi Deane

It should be interesting, and I bet they will like what they hear.

Bernie

Remember, it's not the keyboard- it's the keyboardist

Good luck Deanne

I hope it clears up by the time of your gig- it's no fun to load in/out in the rain. I suppose the KMA will make things that much easier on a day like today.

Played my gig today with the KMA. Here are my observations:
1. The buttons need lights - very hard to see in poor lighting on a gig.
2. The screen needs an adjustment feature for contrast and brightness.
3. Very easy setup - and startup time is fast.
4. With my 2 Bose L1 Compacts it sounded pretty strong and there is enough
output levels to hurt your ears if that is what you want.
5. Most of the KMA styles/performances need tweaking for gigs - RH lead sounds are not always what you expect and accompaniments often are not balanced with the RH lead voice.
6. Big Band Styles are not very good - see #5 above.
7. Waltz styles are lacking - simple waltz styles are needed.


Overall I like this keyboard and it will keep me busy on rainy days playing around with things until I get everything sounding like I want for gigs. I will use it again on Monday for a gig and will record the full gig. I forgot my Zoom recorder to day. I added pictures of my setup today.

Nice setup Deanne love the Rock n Roller rig.....like I always said, you have to be willing to put in the time & spend at least 40-50 hrs+ editing & tweaking on KORG arrangers styles & sounds, sts, etc..thru your own performance Pa system also at stage volume to get them to sound the way you want,.....you will also have to convert styles that you need from other sources also like Ketron, Roland,.
Yes, it's a lot of work, yes, it takes a lot of time, & yes, when your done with your home work you will be totally satisfied with what you have done & the way your rig sounds..
Good luck to you Deanne.

Hi Deane,
What do you use for vocal processing on this setup?
