I have been thinking about ways to perform live that would minimize the laptop's role, or(ideally) take it out all together. I have been thinking about it and came up with two possible solutions so far.
An option for the former might entail using a program like Numerology to sequence my hardware synths via MIDI and using my Drehbank, etc. to change the patterns (analog style). Another option would be more ideal, but would cost considerably more money: buying a hardware sequencer/workstation or synth with a sequencer (ala the Monomachine).
In short, I have two questions for everyone here. 1) In what ways do you perform with a laptop that minimizes interaction with the laptop itself and 2) for those who use hardware sequencers/workstations what have you found that offers the most flexibility for live performances? | |

I guess it all depends on why you want to distance yourself from the laptop. Is it because of the visual aspect? The 'some guy staring at his laptop' is boring thing? Or is it to add more dimensions to your overall sound?
