Re: Live Performance Synthesizer (Omnisphere)
We have all the supplies (Macbook Pro, MOTU Ultralite, Ableton, Omnisphere) for that, but our lead singer is opposed to having a computer onstage. He thinks it ruins the aesthetic, and if we used Omni TR (an iPad app to wireless control Omnisphere "LIVE" Mode) we'd still have to connect a really lon...

Live Performance Synthesizer (Omnisphere)
Hello! I play piano / keyboard in a Pop Rock band. We're now adding a second keyboard, and we'd like to use something that can somewhat recreate the high-quality Omnisphere (pad, organ, bells) sounds that we used on our album. Could either do this by tweaking the built-in synthesizer controls, or by...

Re: Live Performance Synth Setup
Thanks for the help, man. I appreciate it. I like the idea of using a launchpad or something else that could trigger backing tracks instead of another computer. I think you're right, two laptops might be a little too much. Our lead singer, Sam, said he doesn't need midi-outs for the lights-- that it...

Re: Live Performance Synth Setup
Got the Ultralite! Our lead singer talked to me about his ideas for our live set-up... We want our drummer to be able to trigger our back tracks, and we're going to want lights synced to them. I'm also going to want to use the Ultralite for my midi-controller keyboard. Is the Ultralite capable of do...

Re: Live Performance Synth Setup
Stab again! You da man. I think the Ultralite has balanced main outs. That's what someone says on this thread anyways-- http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=232061&sid=296bcd235ac2e0504031a43c2cf02672 It looks like the Apogee Duet might also be a good choice, although it has unbalanced outs a...

Live Performance Synth Setup
Hey everyone! I've been using a Roland RD-700GX keyboard for live performance in my pop/rock band Paradise Fears. Mostly I've been using presets (for leads and background pads) but I've been trying to learn more about creating my own sounds. Anyways, I recently purchased a 25-key Axiom midi controll...

Re: Synth Beginner.. advice please!!
I'm in a pop/rock band called Paradise Fears. I have a few edgy lead parts that I play and would like to create more background electro/pop pads as well as some drum programming. I'm using a Roland RD-700GX keyboard for live performance and have been using mostly presets with a few minor changes in ...

Synth Beginner.. advice please!!
Hey everyone! Just started learning the basics about sound engineering and it's clear that I have a long road of learning ahead of me. I've seen some of the work you guys do and it's incredible... it boggles my mind. :blink: I've been using Ableton live 8 and experimenting with the Sampler/Simpler t...
