Hi Sebastian,
congratulations to your gig.
Unlike you I never had piano lessons, so I´m probably the wackest
keyboarder on earth ;-) That´s why I still I love to play my Juno-60
only with the arpeggiator running ...just pushing faders and making
sound. So if I had an analog sequencer in the Doepfer, I´ll probably use
the keyboard just for transposition.
I never played the modular live so far, but the idea of using mostly
alternative controllers on stage fascinates me, so my next purchase will
be the A-198. I like the idea of playing it like a solo instrument. That
"Keith Emerson freakin´out on the ribbon controller"-style, you know ;-)
By the way: The keyboarder of a 60s-Surf-Rock´n´Roll-band asked me
recently if I´d like to play the modular on one of their gigs (just for
a few songs). Now this must be fun! If this will happen, I´ll let you know.
best,
Paul
PS: I can reccomend the idea of using blind plates next to useful
modules used a lot. I have a 2HP blind plate sitting to the right of my
filter, so I have more space for my hand when turning the pots.
