Hi everyone
I'm a long time lurker on this forum, but this is my first post here. This forum has been a great source of inspiration for me - as well as a dangerous GAS-instigator
My name is David - I'm a 24 yo part-time/hobby keyboard player from Copenhagen, Denmark. I have been involved in a lot of different projects, but at the moment I'm focusing on my own band 'DoktorDoktor' while I finish my Master of Rhetoric at the University of Copenhagen.
In DoktorDoktor we play original live hip-hop with Danish lyrics. We released our debut album on an indie label in the Spring of 2014, which was great. You can check out some of our (old and low-budget) videos

I'm am endorsed by Casio Music Europe, so my live keyboard rig has the Casio PX-5S as the "anchor". It's a great keyboard and it has been a welcome addition to my rig, both sound-wise and weight-wise. Let me just say, I don't miss the days when I had to haul my (otherwise great sounding) Yamaha S90 XS + hardcase to the gigs myself.
My live keyboard rig consist of the Casio PX-5S, a Moog Little Phatty St. II w. EHX Analog Delay and MXR Talk Box, and a Nord Lead 2X w. TC Electronic Chorus + Reverb.
My rig has changed A LOT in the last couple of years (thanks, GAS), but now I feel like I have found a golden combo with great sounds, a lot of hands on control and a great low weight. (However, I have a plan/dream of upgrading the Moog to a Voyager and the Lead to a DSI P8 at some point).
Here is a picture taken during sound check the other day so you can see the rig:

My home rehearsal rig is driven by MainStage on a MBP - here I use a Korg SP200 and a M-Audio Axiom Pro as midi controllers - and a NI Komplete Audio 6 audio interface. I have taken the MainStage rig with me on gigs a couple of times, but I don't really trust it enough to rely on it completely. Maybe I'm just old fashioned.
Anyways, that's about it. I'm glad I finally got around to posting here
