At about 16:00 Ken talks about his rig and what are the benefits of using Gig Performer in his setup.
16:00 of where?
So I’m back to a two controller setup with my Novation Launchkey 88 and my brand new Arturia Keylab 61 Mark III. I really like that little keyboard.
Much smoother and more solid feeling than either my M-Audio Oxygen Pro or Nektar Panorama.
Gig Performer on the laptop and all smooth as silk, other than perhaps my playing at times LOL!
I am with you, Ken.
For me two keyboards is ideal (weighted 88 on bottom and 61 synth action on top).
I feel absolutely no desire for more. And, I like the keyboard options (synth or weighted) and greater keyboard real estate (so I can normally play everything where expected on the keyboard) than one keyboard may allow.
