yes, the place for all that no-no gear.

I like playing bass on keyboards, and I actually learned my music via piano lessons when I was little. I will have to email Rager and see if he will show us what his "bleep-bloop" toy collection looks like now. it was the best of anyone I know before. wonder what it is like now...

As long as I am rolling with Greta, the little 2watt fender combo, I dug up a video of a keyboard+tube amp experiment demo wank I did with the Greta amp.
I tried it out on thee olde DX-7 crappy organ patch. I started with it medium gain/tone and towards the end, kept cranking stuff until it was full spew at the end heh.

obvious mistake was putting the keyboard between the camera mic and the greta amp. That little thing just doesn't get that loud, and waaaay too much key noise for a bit there, but oh well, not a deal breaker.
A single 12AX7 pre tube is pretty rough, but distinctive sounding, and I like how it mangles that really boring generic organ patch.

here is a random ad-lib performance

I'm using a beatstep sequencer and on the floor, out of sight, a 12-step MIDI controller.
here is a pic from the web of one of them in use.

there are also 2 keyboards, 2 sound modules and a drum machine all kludged in there
