Hi Scott,

- say hello to the room, and push GO! (Quoted UD)

Yeah, that was what we do when gigging too, but I can assure you that
about most all panelmemories and registrations was in use regulary.
Could not live without it, because "special" setup and styles for each
song where in use, and I found it about impossible not to use those
buttons as long as we never used the sequenser, only "live" playing.

After a while I got lazy, and started to use the controltrack to record
all changes as fill, pan-mem etc. during practice, and when playing the
songs, it was just to turn it off, and continue manually changes if
there was a need to add the lenght or make room for spontaneous playing.
The use of controltrack I found very relaxing, because then I could
concentrate on the playing instead of pushing buttons and footswitches,
and also it was far more easy to keep the eyecontact with the guests we
where playing for
If you have'nt used this method using your KN, you should give it a try.
Is this possible on a Yamaha?
