The basis for our project is improvisation. There are no "songs" so to speak. So we all allow each other the freedom to do whatever it takes to make us happy;) So taking a minute and a half to switch a few 1 foot patch cords is no big deal compared to the 3 hour set we prefer to do. And the music never stops,so while I'm modifying my setup, the others are still jammin' on. Granted, this may work in my situation and not yours, but I would imagine that one could pull it off on stage if one knew the diagram for each individual song, and took 20-30 seconds to make the quick switch.The other option is to have several aux sends:) Pete. >From: "M.
