it is in the video, but heres an example of a live one take playing of the theme to 2001.

this is using a yamaha wx5 windsynth which plays like a sax, one note at a time, and routing to insert piz here midichords keymapping plugins to trigger the orchestration by mapping notes to individual keys.

essentially its like playing a keyboard with one finger and triggering off all these other notes.

did that live for the stillwater mn july 4th fireworks last year, went well but super scary cause if a finger slips the whole orchestra clams at once.

i can go from that preset to this one for "live and let die"

by pressing a macro key and hitting one of the 2 unused keys on the wx5.

the same goes for any of the other 200+ presets in the project, and i run 2 projects (only one active at a time) so i have another 200+ presets.

the 2 projects started out as copies and gradually project "B" has gotten the better guitars while project "A" has the better brass so kinda like jazz vs. country thing you're never really mixing those flavors in a song.

project a runs 10 vsti's at once, project b runs 11, i recently added in hive because it doesnt take much cpu.

so literally a singer can on a whim yell at me "tuba!" and within one or 2 keypresses i can have tuba and then instantly switch back to strumming acoustic guitar or banjo chords.
