In the first video, above, he shows how he used the W-30 for live rave performances in the 90’s.

Great throwback shares! I was trying to do the same thing on a Korg X3 in those days!
Love it! Great watching you actually load up and play Who is Elvis … so many assigned triggers!
The sounds are still rocking!
Man … you need to play DEMF live!
Then tour the UK.
