Perhaps this isn't the correct place for a post like this, but...

i was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction in terms of what equipment to get if i wanted to write/perform live electronic music.

i have a "rock" band and i want to incorporate a heavy electronic element.

I don't like the idea of using computers live and the first thing i think i want to buy is a drum machine. Please suggest some things! And maybe give me a quick "electronic music live" for dummies tutorial. I've seen prodigy and daft punk a bunch of times and i don't really understand what exactly they're doing lol. i'd like to learn.

i appreciate any input. thanks.

saw a band this weekend that simply used 2 keyboards allong with bassguitar, elec. guitar and drums....

it's just what you want...

yeah et's right, if ure using any hardware use what feels best for u, if u make music on a laptop and u can do live on a laptop then i'd stay with a laptop

i have used reason just to trigger middle parts of tracks

its worked ok for that
