PC4 for gigs with semi-cover band to evolve into originals and remakes

K2061 (when it is available) on top of the PC4 for gigs 

At home for producing my own music: Yamaha S80 as a MIDI controller and for some sounds. VSTs on Windows PC include the excellent GSi VB3 and Modartt Pianoteq Stage 8, plus a lot of free orchestras and synths.

IPad is also a useful controller, and also a source of some sounds when played via MIDI.

Hope to replace the S80 and the Fantom with a K2700 soon, hence I have joined this forum.

Have been using Roland RD2000, Hammond SK Pro plus Mainstage with a Mio XM midi interface and Radial KL8 mixer and IEM system.

Looking to replace that rather cumbersome travel rig for fly gigs and festivals etc.

Currently trying to replicate the show using just the Forte. Its going pretty well after 3 days on it. Steep learning curve but thanks to some very helpful and generous users here I am well on my way!

• home studio + some sessions
• covers / function bands
• original band(s)

I'm in the UK

For my current Kurzweils, my remaining PC3K6 and 7 are both out on loan (being used in home and pro studios mostly for original music) to different people. My Forte7 has been my main board for everything live since it came out - usually paired with something with a better organ (Hammonds preferably) and/or an unweighted keyboard midi'd into it (all sorts - Roland Fantom X6, Yamaha YC61 and even a beloved old JD800 sometimes). My K2700 is still being used in the studio as the main unit as I didn't appreciate how damned heavy it is!

I'm anxious for the K2061 to come soon as my 'small rig' is currently based around a Korg Nautilus + usb controller, although I may swap that out for an old 61key Kronos (I've used the original 73key version live happily for many years even with its outrageous boot time) as the Nautilus isn't floating my boat.

Music wise, I play a fair cross section - everything from old blues, reggae and ska through pop and rock and fair amount of prog rock (!) 

Historically, I've had a few Kurzweils .. let's see : K2000x2, K2000R, K2500R and RS, K2661, PC2R, PC3 x 2, PC3K8 plus the above .. hell - even an old RG150 piano lol.. so a few .. 

If we want to list the rest that I have / have had over the years, we are going to need a bigger forum lol

For the kb3 sounds i use an external leslie emulator which gives a much brighter sound than the internal leslie effect.

For special effects and solos on stage i use the Behringer DM12.

At home i play mainly classical piano on my Roland FP90

In the hobby room there is a vintage portable hammond with a Behringer Poly D on top of it. These are for the experimental fun moments

Located in New England (USA), I use either a PC4 or SP6, as single or Duo (usually keys/Sax), sometimes bringing both boards (that have the same key multi's) for a significant gig such as a wedding.
.....also bring similar quality backup amp in those cases.

Also Play for breweries, restaurants, cafe's, street fairs, etc. Am highly dependent on left hand Bass splits. Have a variety of custom Bass sounds, and ALWAYS 'stack' more that one bass via layers in order to get 'that sound'

Play a lot of 'jazzy' standards, but also a mix of pop/blues. I have owned a lot of boards, still also have a yamaha board. However, the Kurz's are my go-to boards due to noted ability to add/customize bass patches, and create various Multis under VAST.

..thanks for continuing to release the updates on both of these boards! I do apply and check out the updates
