Believe me after talking to Don M and a few others here.... I am seriously exploring the BK7m/Controller route as I am with a few other options. I wish there were some more good you tube BK7m demos by other players..Can anyone suggest some really good full features 61 controllers FOR LIVE PERFORMANCE? Edited by Dnj (02/02/12 11:29 AM)

Keep in mind that DonM and many others using this system leave their equipment set up at the same location for several days, and sometimes weeks at a time. They're not setting up and tearing down two to three times a day, 5 to 7 days a week. Those of us that work the NH and retirement community circuits frequently do doubles, some triples, and the most effective tool in our inventory is the arranger keyboard where everything is contained within a single unit. A module, controller keyboard and the associated wiring just doesn't make good sense for you, or me.

Gary is right...having it all contained in a single unit is extremely effective if you're moving a lot.

Good Luck, Gary You are right Gary....I understand and have taken that setup aspect into consideration also especially for MY needs on stage a few that you have mentioned above... I already carry 3 pc's for NH gigs which is nice...& 8 Pc's for all my other big dance & DJ club gigs........just want to explore and rule out ALL that is available....thanx for the ideas.. always appreciated.
