True, the only indication i had during Todd Sines' live pa that he was
changing something up on his laptop was when he started wiggling his ass
and
bobbing his head ... and he was doing a lot of that!
Maybe bigger and better cooler looking external controllers are the way
forward since it solves both problems. (setting up/crowd satisfaction and
understanding)
---> Another way to enhance that could be projecting what is being done on a
large screen although I can imagine some artists may have problems with such
an 'indepth view'.

see, and this is something i actually disagree with. I think it is *very*
important for the audience to recieve visual cues to the music. Its how
they can start to understand what's going on. Since most people don't own
studio equipment, or know people who own studio equipment, they don't fully
understand the concept unless there are strong visual cues ("i do this and
the music does that"). Now, i understand the HUGE popularity of laptop
live
pa's right now with the artists. it IS so much easier to setup. But i
guess i feel its sacrificing too much for ease of use.
