Hey guys,
Finally we got a video done of our last gig:

I think it gives a nice impression of location and show/visuals. In the future, we’re going to also record voices etc. of all those people in the club (my tascam is able to record that also, but I chose the ‘secure path’).
As the people did enjoy the party but not really understand what we were doing on stage (“1 DJ, 1 VJ and what is the 3rd guy doing there?”), we now have the vision “even more live”! Live drumming (MD controlled via drum pads), live keyboard playing of bass lines etc. A lot was done live already (MD mostly in grid edit mode, melodies played on the A4’s mini keyboard, percussive sounds from a drum pad, voice samples, OP1 stuff), but it makes a difference whether you are clicking on a button machine or playing on a MIDI keyboard or playing complete grooves (except kick --> metronome) on drum pads. That’s where we now put most of our time into when practicing.
The VJ’s did a great job! They even installed a video camera! (next time from above, but was not possible at that event)
Enjoy
