The Music speaks for itself

For this gig, we had no bass player nor a drummer. Therefore, for some
songs, a pre-recorded/arranged track was used on the Yamaha DGX-305 of
the drum and bass parts (and sometimes a quiet keyboard part such as
e-piano or grand piano). For other songs, a drum pattern from the
Yamaha DGX-305 was used and K. Selby played bass and keys live (using
the DGX-305 in Split mode). In a few cases, a drum pattern from the
Yamaha DGX-305 was used and K. Selby played bass on the DGX-305 and
keys using a Roland A-30 triggering various sound libraries hosted in
Sonar 3.11 on the Notebook PC (see next paragraph). These permutations
are noted for each song listed below. We are providing this information
because we believe in fully informing our listeners of the specifics of
our shows as well as possibly inspiring others to use relatively basic,
inexpensive and available equipment to play live. Try it! It's fun!

K. Selby uses a variety of keyboard sound libraries for the main
keyboard parts he plays. These are hosted in Sonar 3.11 on the
Notebook PC and triggered via a Roland A-30 controller keyboard.
