How many folk here play live sets with (mainly) live drum/synth synthysis

[dirty_bass]

I play a live PA

I generally run about 8 tracks of audio + 2 vst synths at any one time.

I split my tunes up into parts, bass, main percussion, hats, stabs etc and turn some parts over to live vsti synths

Every channel has a high and low pass filter, some have extra effects, plus I run a bank of 4 effects vsti`s over the master outputs as well as master out filters.

I use a BCF2000 as my controller, and just about manage to do everything, I`m at the limit of what I can manage really at the mo, but I get better all the time. I do play about 2 or 3 fully recorded tracks in each pa to test new material and tracks that just can`t be played live.

I would say I play as live as I possibly can up to my current abilities.

I have seen some woefully pathetic "live" pa`s in ableton though.

Just Djing tunes together with maybe some extra effects. Terrible.

Thats EXACTLY or there abouts the same as me

except i use around 10 tracks of audio and 2 VSts, and have reverb and delay on some sends with 2 dials controlling 5 sends on the right and 5 on the left.

i wish i had more hands though.. and i use fully formed tracks as well, perhap 2 or three in an hour, placed mainly so i can go for a WEEEE! if needed :lol:
