saw the impressive drummer kit thread. 8O
we have guitar and bass pics littered around too, but no softies' keyboard rack kit.?
anyone interested to start.?
keyboard setups should be more interesting i guess, with the possibility of synths,racks, modules, PCs, midi contollers, pianos
come one! G4s or triple layer stands or stage pianos, show us all!!

i wonder if this works,never posted pics b4..here goes:
simple 2 tier triton LE black with SY 35 below.
hidden below is laney ck30, roland and korg pedals, and yamah dx100 collecting dust.
i'm so glad i didnt sell the sy 35. i would have died with the LE's horrible piano.
no soft synth for now, using onboard sequencer. works wonders for me in jams.

some additon to the family since may:
Korg sp200 digital piano and yamaha KX5 limited black. i'm a sucker for 'black specials"..its a childhood Tamiya fetish... :P
I need to get a digital camera and take some pix... but this is my rig:
Live Rig/Left:
Yamaha Motif ES7 over a
Kurzweil PC1x
Live Rig/Right
Nord Lead 3 over a
Nord Electro 2/73
Stage Monitoring:
Hartke KM200
In the Rack:
Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter (x2) with MPG-80
Studio Electronics SE1
Oberheim Matrix 1000
Waldorf Microwave XT
MOTU MTP AV to tie it all together
All the stuff in the rack (except the Waldorf) is for sale as I don't use it as part of my live rig. For small gigs I just bring Live Rig/Left. The ES7 has two analog modeling cards and a DX card installed, so I can cover a lot of sonic ground just with the ES7.
Keys - Edirol PCR-1
Hardware synth - Roland SH-32, JV1010, Nord G2 Engine (<- geh kiang, order this then find out modular synth is way over my head. Sounds nice though).
Synth card - EMU0404 with Proteus X, Creamware system (with Minimoog, Juno106, Prophet 5 emulation).
Hey lowjk, which Creamware system are you using? SCOPE? Not cheap.... Any reason why you use Creamware together with Emu?
OK, my minimalist setup:
Roland A70 controller (in Singapore; when overseas - Yamaha S90)
Mackie 1202 VLZ-PRO mixer
That's all! (Sold everything else)

SCOPE system.
Why EMU? Because Creative listed the price as $179 when it first lauched Proteus X. Tempted, I bought it thinking it was a promotional price. Turned out that they made an error and it was just the price for the software upgrade.
Anyway, you need a EMU card to run Proteus X although it's just a VSTi. And I like it more than Creamwares' sampler (loading is a bit hit & miss -> sometimes cannot detect an Akai disc).

Looks like hardware is phasing out.
There are more varieties from using software instruments.
jk, is the Proteus X worth it the card? I've always been dreaming about Creamware's stuff. Is Modular III packaged into SCOPE? I will really like to hear some stuffs from your Creamware system!!!
Bongman, nice setup! But I think you are being modest. This must be your shrinked-down setup. Still, Yamaha + Trinity + XV - you have a very wide range of sound! Any plans to upgrade your Trinity to Triton and the EX7 to Motif?
And I've no idea you're a sampling fellow too! Do you have many libraries on SampleTank?
