Fran - nice picture! Nice to see that same model (M-Audio Code49 in use in a similar way! What I have done too, is change the color of the buttons - since I use them to recall sounds on the Genos, I use (somewhat) the "Theatre Organ" color code: red button color for anything that is a reed or brassy; yellow button color for anything strings or string-like, white button color for "flute" (or B3 organ) type sounds. I use blue for "percussive" sounds like vibes, marimba, celeste, music-box, chimes etc. (this is not a theatre-organ stop color! :-)

Question for you guys using a van or SUV for transport.

Do you have any protective kind of barrier between you and the equipment in the back, in case of an abrupt stop which would send your equipment flying forward?

I've been thinking about such a setup, like a sheet of 1" ply fitted to width and height fixed across the back of the front seats.

Same as Jim, I fold it flat (2 seconds), pick it up, (maybe 4 pounds) and slide it on top of my other gear in the back of my Expedition.

Jim, Great looking hitech set up!

Jim great setup, it reminds me of my younger days. Right now it would make me nuts.

This is definately a setup i would see myself using if they ever released an 88 key Genos..

Won’t happen i know..
But we all have our wishes..

How is the VIP integration with the M-uadio?

Hi - not sure what "VIP" integration is? I'm using basic MIDI commands with the M-Audio to Genos, and all works well. . . nothing fancy or complex though . . .

The Code series is among the supported Controllers listed in VIP... but I still prefer to use my DAW to play the instruments (MixCraft Pro 8)
