Am I standing or sitting? Wow - I could never sit that low. When I do choose to kick back, I have a nice padded stool that allows me to "almost" stand, but it hurts my butt to be on the edge all night - I'm better with the shifting of weight between feet. Scott, I'm on the sustain constantly, and mostly have an EP sound in my RH. I'd be very uncomfortable without a sustain. My priorities have always been as follows: 1. vocal 2. bass 3. drums 4. chords (piano-ish) Maybe I am more forgiving of the Yamaha mono tone because: a. I do modify it to punch up the freq that are lacking or weak, and b. the piano is 4th on my list of important sounds. I could use any old chord sound and still maintain my signature sound as long as the vocals are strong, and the bass and drums are good. I played for so many years with a Rhodes and a Moog bass - I got used to being a small trio type ensemble. As the sounds got better, I started to use more of them, but I am still a Rhodes,bass,drums trio with a vocal harmony group in front. That's the way I like it, and thank God it still sells!

Am I standing or sitting? Cheers, Gary Gary, Neither, your fast asleep. Nah you are sitting Gary, I can see the legs of the seat you can't fool an old fool Gary. Anyway I am more interested in the speakers, how big was the room you were playing in, here in the UK we like lots of power, had I been playing I have two 400 SR and I can turn them down on the back. I also notice the walls a smooth boarding, had this been curtains your sound system would have died a 1000 deaths pointing back to the wall. Also the speakers have no mid range, how does that work. Appears to me that you are playing background music perhaps your just about keeping pace with the background talking of your audience. You need to blast them away Gary get some power up there, make then listen. BTW is that sign with your name on it got a light inside it. Thanks for the photo. Cheers Tony
