Guitar, and a little bit of bass. I used to be a really good trumpet player, but I haven't played in years.. I can get intelligible noises out of most brass instruments, except trombone.

Boy, I gotta get out more often...I didn't even notice the Live/Gigging thread.

Drums (26 years and counting),percussion, bass, guitar, keyboard, used to play trumpet. Using MIDI in electronic drumming since '84

You sing K? Yikes.  

I forgot one thing. Not that it matters. I studied sarangi for a short while a few years back. A bowed instrument with a gizillion strings. Painful to play. Beautiful when played well, like any instrument. Sarangi means voice of 100 colors. Didn't get far with it anyway.

K, why don't you do a vocal track for us. People complain that they don't know what you look like. Let us hear you anyway.

I have to say this just for the record. Everyone knows what you mean by proper instruments, but I think of my synthesizers as proper instruments. In fact having played several proper instruments, I think of my synths as even more challenging and full of possibilities and full of life. I love my synths to death. There's nothing like them. Love at first blurpy little noise.

yeah...I was sitting here thinking the other day...how I missed playing in a band...cuz I get tired of having to "do it all myself" sometimes...(which, funny but, I dropped out of a few bands because I got sick of dealing with other people.) Is there ever a middle ground?

anyway...to do this RIGHT, this electronic music thing...it really does take an immense amount of knowledge, knowhow, and practical application. I mean...most of us are START TO FINISH types....composition, arrangement, engineering, and "production" (oh the connotation!!!!)

so...at this point...instead of me getting down on myself because I cant play bass like that guy from Medeski Martin and Wood, how 'bout I propose a toast to the truly independent DIY folks out there who have spent countless hours learning modulation matrices, mastering techniques, and good ol general recording specifics.

eh?
