I experienced the exact problem that DJX was talking about.
The Hotel I was performing at on Saturday night, had a limiter set at 85
decibels, I'd sound checked making sure I was below the decibels, not
letting the light on the wall move from the Green, however, the DJ for the
night setup away from the stage, at the opposite side of the room, and
plugged in to sockets that wasn't on the cut-out ring so it didn't affect
His system if he made the limiter stay on the red light.
I wasn't aware that he'd made my system reset itself until my driver said,
"Your spotlights have just gone to flood by themselves."
It would have been a tricky gig if my driver hadn't help me find alternative
sockets in the venue. as even hardware takes a little time to set back to
your desired settings.
My advice would be always have spare electric extension leads, which have
long quality cables, plus, plug something in to the limiter plugs sockets
just so they look like they are being used.
This isn't about blasting out power, just protecting your equipment and
keeping your mind free of unnecessary stress.
I powered my gig from the plug sockets in the dressing room, we all had a
great night.

One reason to still have a real workstation is for speed. When you write, it
might disrupt your flow to start inserting and tweaking synths. A board like
the Motif has it over the computer in terms of being able to quickly dial
through presets, in just about any category, and have them come up with not
only the sound, but good effect and eq settings right off the bat. Having
said that, though, you can only go so far with instrument voice tweaking on
the Motif.
If you can afford it, is probably better to have a real keyboard for
rehearsal and writing, and the computer for producing full versions of your
songs.

Hi all, since we are on the topic of good drums how would you compare the
superior Hi all, since we are on the topic? How would you compare the
superior drum's sounds to the roland td20 electronic drum kit sounds? Ok i
know the roland td20 kit is like 5000 bucks but alot of that has to be the
hardware side of things because you get an entire drum set with it basicly.
So im wondering if i had a really good drum midi controler, what do you
think would be better? Man i was actually sitting here tonight wondering if
i should sell my motif xs. Listening to some of these soft synths just blows
the thing away. And i don't gig out alot at all with it if ever. Heck with
all these good piano synths out there like ivory and many others i might
just get away with that. Sorry just had to throw that in there lol.
