Here are some photos of David using Gig Performer in his various bands. The keyboards, one 88-note weighted controller and between (depending on the band) one and three 69-note lightweight controllers. In some back-lined shows, the supplied controllers are sometimes actually synths but in such cases they are used only for MIDI control.
I love Steely Dan, and this cover is at the top. I love all the small details like the subtile and very good sounding back vocals I think I know the guy playing keyboards…
They wouldn’t let us go. After multiple encores, we ended up playing FM which then turned into a 1/2 hour jam that included 10 minutes of noodling around the Pink Panther theme (thanks to the local horn section we had) — quite a scene
Yep, it’s still my main controller. Hate the joysticks though.
I did buy a a backup “all in one” keyboard recently (Yamaha CK88) both to have a spare controller and just in case something happens like some schmuck dropping my laptop during setup)
It actually has a nice feel and I would have considered using it instead of the SL88, even just as a controller except it requires separate power via a wall wart and I don’t want to have to deal with that.
Hi-I’m new to GP so pardon the resurrection of this thread. David-great stuff here tech and playing wise. I’m intrigued by the 2 finger sequence triggering bit. Is there some sort of tutorial around about how that is done?
This was originally done with GPScript, the programming language built into GP.
However, as of GP 4.7, this can be done using some new parameters built into the MIDI file player.
