My patches run in Kontakt and I trigger from a controller keyboard. Many of my patches I programmed with splits and multi-patches that trigger at different velocities so I can cover a lot of sounds within one custom patch.<\/p>\n<p>If you are using Ableton Live 8 you can use Max for Live to automatically trigger patch changes at key points. You can also send patch changes to other instrumentalists.<\/p>\n<p>I know there is software you can setup to do a series of patch changes in a linear fashion. In other words, you can setup 60 patch changes in a row and just trigger &#8220;next&#8221; for the next patch change. But I have personally not used this in any shows I&#8217;ve done.<\/p>\n<p>You can do all this with Ableton Live 8 with Max For Live. I&#8217;d suggest learning it because so many shows are using it now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Email question received: Hello I&#8217;m just starting to play more shows with\u00a0patch\u00a0changes and such.\u00a0Is there computer software that&#8217;s best for setting this up and controlling.\u00a0Right now I control throughout the\u00a0keyboard\u00a0pedal.\u00a0I&#8217;ve seen on broadway they have computers hooked up to the keyboards.\u00a0Any help is great.
