The Keytar is the Alesis Vortex, plugs straight in the Kronos via USB cable, no additional midi cable required.

Can't wait to try it on stage 8)

I picked up an old AX7 and a CME WIDI wireless MIDi interface for an 80s duo I'm putting together. Works great with no dropouts. Walked outside all the way out to the street with the Kronos inside and worked fine. I'm comfortable that I'll be able to roam all around bars and nightclubs with it.

Prepare to feel like a total doofus!
I stopped bringing mine to gigs haha.

My epic fail was playing the Beat It solo with my in-ears in, and not realizing I had forgotten to patch it to the FOH.

Also, there's this:

I can't decide if I like Airplane Improv or this one better.

Reminds me of the old joke:

"What's the definition of the word 'Gentleman?'

Someone who knows how to play the accordion, but doesn't."
