Here’s a great behind the scenes look at the live rig used for Howard Jones‘ Humans Lib / Dream Into Action Tour, via sonicstate.
Musical director Robbie Bronniman and percussionist Jonathan Atkinson give a tour of the gear and how it’s configured for the tour.
What’s amazing is that this is largely a home/bedroom studio on stage.
I mean, MacBook Pro, Ableton Live, iPad/Lemur, Mainstage, I think I’ve seen this stuff before!
In 2012 that’s about all you need to make your own synth-pop (or other) album!
Interesting that he replaced his real Jupiter with the Arturia emulation.

Arturia’s Jupiter doesn’t get stuck keys or any of the hardware breakdown issues the real ventage analog ones get… As he said they went through 3 befor settling on the softsynth. Also, I doubt even 1 in 10 fans at the show know the difference
