Anybody know what keyboards, modules and samples he uses on the current tour?

Someone posted a mini-concert review in a thread a bit back, and wrote,

 

"Saw a Chick Corea concert recently and he had some cool gear:

 

Acoustic Grand Piano (not sure what model) [LJS: Yamaha C-7 I'm pretty sure]

Rhodes MK II Stage (with midi) - hooked up to

Motif ES8

And some kind of strap on keyboard [LJS: Yamaha KX-5 I think]

 

He used the Rhodes most of the time, but ripped a couple solos on the Motif and, of course, used the acoustic for all his older standards. He also used the midi function on the Rhodes a lot. He'd make it sound a lot like a DX7 piano, but with that Rhodesy undertone, then unMIDI it and play some screaming solo old school style."

A picture may paint a thousand words, but a melody can paint a thousand pictures.
