Josh Paxton Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 My rig earlier today... Why? Because I was told the backline board provided would be a CP73, and I thought the YC on top of that would cover all my bases nicely. Then I got there and found out that either someone at the backline company grabbed the wrong Yamaha, or someone misremembered the model number, or something. Because the backline board turned out to be... another YC61. Of course it could have been far worse. When I need to pack light, I often do gigs with this band with just the YC and nothing else. And if one is doable, two are definitely better. Still, it felt like a weird flashback to that unfortunate time in the mid-'80s when you'd see guys gigging with nothing but two DX7s, which made for a drool-worthy rig at the time.

pinkfloydcramer Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I haven't found an organ patch on my YC88 that I actually like, so far. In spite of following your suggestion to click my heels together and say "better fast leslie" 3 times! ): But I haven't really explored it much, yet. And they're good enough to get me through a gig. I haven't yet sold my CP73, really ought to but you know how that goes..I could see myself stacking the 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Paxton Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 Brotha Josh, I hope you took the *right* one back home after the gig. I made extra sure of that! Plugged it back in before putting it in the case just to check that my presets came up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
