    Mike has made the discovery of the modern music... He's figured out how to play good strings from a keyboard without using a VST. That's unreal to say the least! It sounds so amazingly beautiful and cool, even without considering his incredible harmonic intuition and musical understanding. #WORLDCLAS!

    Yamaha MODX (which gives you the Montage sounds if not all the functionality) is easily the best bang-for-buck synth out there. Scenes are an absolute gamechanger for live performance. Initially I was put off by the complexity but it's worth the effort. New OS updates added sequencer and Morphing feature.
    The only negative for me are the piano and organ patches, which is why I use a Nord 6 underneath (pianos are fine but just not to my taste...nothing cuts through like the Nord's Bright Grand patch!)
    I believe this combination gives me everything I need for almost every musical situation.
