I have a couple of people looking for them, so I'll eventually get one.Regards,Eric Yeah walnut is more common. The lime oak and cherrywood will be harder to find.

I had to find a cheap A100, steel its bench which matched and sold the A100 by iteself!!!! Keep on the look out there are some on ebay but again PRICEy, try looking for an E100 bench they are the same and you can usually find one of those for about $200 for the whole organ with full pedal set. Keep the bench and Ebay the organ and pedals!!! Depending on where you are located someone out there probably has one they want to part with!!! E100's are not the heavily sought after Hammonds!!

I play Key Bass on most jobs, and if I need some extra bass oomph due to a really large room, I run a feed to the PA just for the bass side of the stereo mix. I get all this plus a small PA if needed into my Toyota Matrix, and still get 34 to a gallon . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in NJ, left-hand bass was all the rage, back in the day - when my dad was doing gigs (weddings/banquets, etc...). Nowadays all bands use a bass plyr. or sequences. I occasionally book pickup gigs for myself and a guitarist w/drum machine - then I'll do lefthand bass. It's tiring, especially if I'm also singing and working the drum machine. Where do you live? Also - how easy is it to control the Mo' ES Rack from the Roland RD300SX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BadgerBoy Posted May 18, 2006 Members Share Posted May 18, 2006 Yamaha P120 for everything that requires a "subtle touch". Triton Extreme 61 for synthy stuff. If anything overflows a Triton Classic 61 as a controller for the Extereme or maybe organs. I hate doing patch changes in the middle of tunes so if I need 4 splits plus Piano, they sounds are all there in one go. Really bad photo: http://www.barnsleyentertainment.com/pages/IMG_2270_JPG.htm Now got a K&M Spider Pro stand. Wobbly as anything if you give it some punishment at extreme top or bottom ends. Synth stuff's OK but the biting piano (Velo+128!) tends to make me feel a bit nervous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rwp42 Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 I have worked hard the past year to optimize my 'live' setup. It is hard to balance flexibility with portability, but I think I have come close to an ideal -- at least for me. My main keyboard used to be a Fantom X8. Two factors caused me to change: 1) too big/heavy, and 2) much more studio-centric than live-centric control layout. Other than those two factors, I absolutely loved the X8, and I still miss its excellent weighted piano feel. That being said, my main keyboard is now the 76-key G-70. Even though I don't use the 'one man band' arranger capabilities much (I usually play with a four to five piece band), the whole keyboard is very live-centric. Color touch screen, d-beams, organ drawbars, etc... I have owned pretty much every stand ever manufactured (A-frames, X-stands, Ultimate Apex column stand, etc...). But the Ultimate V-Stand really knocked my socks off. Very portable, Very solid, handles 88-key synths as easily as 61's, height adjustable, and uncluttered access to floor pedals. Stand Nirvana. On a (back)side note, I bought a Campmoor portable camp stool that has a functional back rest and actually fits *inside* the V-Stand case with the V-stand! For amplification, I placed a long-odds bet on newfangled and went Bose PAS with a single subwoofer. I have to say that I am not going back to floor amps/wedge setups ever again. Besides the obvious portability, the sound quality is superb and the multiple inputs coupled with remote control makes it a very powerful and flexible unit for live setups. I wish the remote was wireless, and wish that it controlled all four inputs instead of just the first two, but these are nitpicky details. Pedals are straightforward: I love the new Roland FV-500L for stereo volume control, and also use Roland's FP-10 damper pedal. I have one 6U gatorrack that always comes with me containing: a Shure ULX Wireless mic receiver and front-mounted antennae (I use a condenser headset mic with this for handsfree vocals), a Furman UL8 II power conditioner, an Alesis 3U 12R Multimix mixer, and a TC Electronic M300 dual-engine reverb/multieffector. Another 3U gatorrack accompanies me if I am also serving guitar duties containing: a Roland GT-Pro and a Roland GI-20 GK->MIDI box. I play both a Rickenbacker 360 and Fender Lonestar Strat modified with built-in GK system. That's about it. Oh, did I mention that the entire setup fits in my RX-8? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members suitandtieguy Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 this is what i used at the last gig: i really need to get the looping rig into its own rack so i'm not wrapping 2000 USD worth of studio effects in a blanket to bring it to the gig. also, the MS2000R is just used for sequencing and was just borrowed. hopefully i'll be done with my modular system by the next gig and i can sequence it from Numerology or a Q960 or something. btw, the minimoog goes into the Eventide, then the PCM-80 which is configured as a looper under control from the PC1600. then it goes into the PA or if there's no PA it goes into my leslie through the organ's preamp. if there's no PA i don't bring the MS2000, which is used for berlin school type sequences. the leslie is a 122. i would rather bring a pair of 31Hs but i don't have a trailer yet.

Umm...that's because it's not supposed to be in stereo. (I stack my cabinets one on top of the other...I need room for my guitar rig, too). Running stereo, in a live setting, is a silly idea to me. Nobody, other than yourself (and maybe a few audience members who are directly in front of you) is going to hear a correct stereo signal. Indeed, it will probably sound out of phase. Mono is the way to go, live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
