When performing live I use 4-5 keyboards to cover different sounds, so no need for a patchbay. (Keyboards used are dedicated weighted piano, Hammmond B3 clone, Synth controlling laptop with virtual keyboard I use for custom FX, and two utility boards for synth, strings etc. ) You can usually daisy-chain up to three midi units together without an audible delay. Off the top of my head I think delay per midi daisy chain &#8220;through&#8221; is around 3-7 milliseconds. Audible delay usually occurs somewhere around 20 milliseconds for most people. So, you can hook up to three units together before you reach a delay that&#8217;s audible. Do you need to link together more than three modules per board?<\/p>\n<p>Hope  that helps. We&#8217;re just starting to rehearse our production, so let me know if you have any super-duper secret insider tips or errata info on the scores.<br \/>\nConrad<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, I&#8217;m doing HS Musical at Irvington Town Hall Theater in a little over a week.
