    Wow, David! I just bought GP 5, and I'm totally blown away by all this tool is capable of. I learn something new about GP 5 every day.
    Thank you guys for creating the greatest live performance tool I've seen so far. I left Main Stage as soon as I discovered Gig Performer, and so far, after using it for a mere two weeks, it's changed my live performance life! It's a complete paradigm shift in live performance.. FOR THE BETTER!! 😊

      The finger tapping "trick" is now built into the MIDI Player in Gig Performer so no scripting is necessary

    That trick with tempo tapping for sequence is genius! I will keep that in mind. Thanks!

    The MIDI Sequende sync is a very clever and elegant solution to avoid clicked/stems and keep the groove breathing, but also deliver the textures required by the song. Would love to see how to do it. Great stuff as usual.

    Oh you are a sly one David. I can see why you don't use the Nektar Pacer anymore. Your setup is amazing, and I can see the mad scientist behind all the workings here. Miss you and the BackStage crew. Happy Holiday's Glen Short.

    Wow! very cool stuff , I'm particularly interested in what's going on in GP for the clocking a midi sequence left hand part of Cousin Dupree ! I have a drummer who wouldn't respond to a click track and having that ability to control otherwise difficult to play riffs with one hand that could vary in tempo to match the drummer is absolutely BRILLIANT imo ! Thank you !

    Really impresive setup David! Thanks for sharing! You have obviously invested alot of time in this and it clearly works very well.
    Beyond a quality audio interface what steps have you taken to reduce latency? I have more latency using GP than I am comfortable with such that it's stopping me playing live with it. Can I also ask what VST you use or are your favourites? Thanks again!

    • @DavidJamesonPhD
      @DavidJamesonPhD 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I've never had an issue with latency - not sure why you are -- assuming you have a decent audio interface (and decent drivers, particularly for Window), and you set your sample rate to 44,100 and buffer size to either 256 or 128, you should be fine.if not, then there's something wrong with your configuration. You might want to visit our community forums and describe your problem there. As for plugins, too many to mention here but my main ones are pianoteq (acoustic piano), Lounge lizard (Rhodes/Wurly), Blue3 (Hammond Organ), TH-U for effects, Kontakt for general purpose use and the Arturia plugins.

    I'm also using ForScore with Gig Performer to send Program change commands when a song is selected. How did you setup the page turning back from the keybaord/foot controllers? Is there a midi command that For score responds to to do that? I've been using a bluetooth airturn, but that can be flaky sometimes and send too many page forwards with on press which can mess up the sounds mid-song.

    • @DavidJamesonPhD
      @DavidJamesonPhD ปีที่แล้ว

      Goto Settings and then “Page turners and shortcuts”. Tap on the item you want to control….forscore should say “Listening…”. Now send a MIDI message to it and you’re done.

      This was done using our scripting language. There is an example on our community forum

    Fabulous! ... but I have two questions: 1) Why use Lemur as a controller when you have the Top and Bottom keyboards as controllers? 2) Couldn't you simplify your rig without comprising the sound quality by using more simplistic MIDI controllers (with knobs, buttons and sliders)?

    • @DavidJamesonPhD
      @DavidJamesonPhD 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Lemur is interactive and bidirectional. The scripts I'm using allow it to automatically display only a small subset of the total number of widgets that might on a GP panel. While one may need lots of widgets on a panel, for example, to tweak lots of settings while creating sounds, or to switch certain parameters automatically via variations, when I'm actually performing, I only need to know or adjust a couple of parameters and that's much easier if the other parameters aren't displayed at all. That said, I don't ignore the controls on the keyboards. For example, the first 6 buttons on that upper keyboard are used to switch song parts on the fly. If I need to emulate hammond drawbars for a song, then I'll use the 9 sliders in the middle of that controller for that purpose.
      I'm not sure what you mean by simplifying my rig without compromising sound quality. The sounds are created by plugins managed by Gig Performer, the actual controllers have no impact.

      @@DavidJamesonPhD Are both your keyboards used here just MIDI controllers? ... then, my bad, I thought they were synths and you felt the need for sounds produced by synths in addition to plugins. :) I have several friends that I have been trying to sell them on GP, but they are reluctant to use plugins for their live gigs. To me, GP can do everything I need and my plugins sound great ... but some purists want it their way.

      @@philphil4295 I haven't used a hardware synth since 2012 for live performance. Both of those keyboards are just MIDI controllers. I've toured US, Canada, Europe and Japan with just these kinds of controllers - the only time I ever had a problem was at one backlined festival in Norway where they gave me a hardware synth to use as a controller and that synth broke! The purists often forget that todays' laptops get thrown around, used all day, every day by kids and adults and a decent laptop is very reliable. And if one is concerned about a laptop breaking, it's a lot easier to carry a spare laptop than a spare synth!

    Lemur??!?! Didn't Liine just announce that app is DONE on the iPad? Switch to MIDI Designer ASAP! It's the best. No OSC, but that's cool. Moog and DSI don't support OSC either.

    • @DavidJamesonPhD
      @DavidJamesonPhD 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      This video was posted 11 months ago --- and not having OSC is NOT cool. OSC has tremendous benefits over MIDI, not the least of which is being able to control and respond to multiple disparate systems from a centralized device (such as your iPad or a computer running Gig Performer) with multiple arguments, high resolution values, ability to send text without having to deal with incompatible sysex text representations and many other such things.
      It doesn't matter that Moog and DSI don't support OSC - if you control those synths (and indeed any other synths) from Gig Performer, you can still leverage OSC from your iPad to control the parameters of those synths.
      It is indeed a shame that Lemur has gone away and while MIDI Designer is not bad, if you want to be able to handle OSC, then TouchOSC Mk2 from Hexlar is probably the way to go.
