Re: Tell us about your rig
Hehe thanks man,
It took a long time to get all this together... about 25 years!
Actually I tend to stick with a few pieces for ages do some compositions and then move on to other equipment as time permits. Otherwise I think having all this gear can be a bit of a distraction. The key piece for me atm has been the SV-1 as it has allowed me to jam and gig with other musicians a lot....

.. a lot of fun, but my favourite pieces of gear are actually the Rhodes, Mini, Matrix 12 and the RD700GX piano and those will be the main pieces I use on my solo CD... whenever I finish it.... I also love my Z1 and V-Synth GT (although I find it too random and frequently lose/ruin my sounds as I am editing).

Re: Tell us about your rig
The Fantom does water down the old analogue broth a bit doesn't it?
Been wanting to mate the two together for over a year now....AND the Taurus stil won't fit underneath the x stand, not like this and not in a way thats sorth the effort.
Looks like an A Frame is in my future.
Salud!

Re: Tell us about your rig
EricK,
...there's an IKEA table that might do it for you. Users of the Hauptwerk software, which is an incredible pipe organ simulation, often build multi-keyboard rigs that also include full pedal boards underneath, all at the right height, etc. As a pipe organist, I can tell you that having your playing surfaces in the right orientation and comfort is really what you want...
Let me hunt up the link for you, some amazing pictures of set-ups... you will find that Moog users and the pipe organ world are related in many ways...seriously!

Re: Tell us about your rig
here's the link to a site that has photos of multikeyboards with touch screen interfaces and pedal boards... food for thought.
I still have to find the IKEA table info... this pipe organ simulation setup is, however, pricey. Absolutely amazing stuff.

Scroll to the bottom of the page, and you will have major gear acquisition syndrome. I mean really.
It won't take much to imagine some Moog gear in there. and it's all operable while seated in a central location, no gear buried in racks out of reach, etc.
Wow. enjoy, jgirv

Re: Tell us about your rig
I really really appreciate those links. I thought that Id be able to stick the t3 under the fantom but its impossible. The t3's are freakin huge!
And there is quite a bit of space from front to back on this setup, the theremin is pretty far back from the keys of the phantom. THe voyager/micro are pretty usable though from seated. I can actually adjust everything I need while sitting, minus the mixer eq, gain, etc. But once that is set its generally left alone.
I jsut wish my keyboard skills were substantially improved.

Re: Tell us about your rig
...you're welcome.
...years ago I had a furniture maker craft a table that was low enough (just a few inches lower than your standard table) to allow the main keyboard (in your case, the Roland) to be at exact acoustic piano height...he also crafted a shelf that slid over the main keyboard, and allowed whatever you wished to be on top (like your Voyager, for example)....Maybe you could have the two Moog boards side by side on the same shelf...the Etherwave could probably live a bit off to the side, left or right depending on your preference.
...Yep, those pedals gotta go underneath... off to the side doesn't seem right. I had my table made of pine, so it wasn't heavy...the typical commercial studio table you can buy these days is usually MDF board, which is HEAVY... in case you were looking to be gig-portable with the whole rig. Detachable legs easy to craft.
...if you can hunt up a A-frame stand, like the old Ultimate Support stands, you could spray paint it (I remember many of them being very silver, quite 80's)... they used to come in pretty wide models (for those 88-key boards)
...your foogers in the rolling(?) rack unit are, of course, just fine as is... maybe get 'em closer to you. There are also laptop holders that may solve that for you, in case you do a lot of computer tweaking as you play or sequence.
The real problem with most rigs is the strain they place on the neck, as it turns in opposition to where the torso or hands are. And, yes, even if you're not the worlds' greatest KB player, ergonomics counts. Comfort = fun, and good music making.
