"Right now we're going to talk about how this keyboard can control this rhythm machine. As we said before, I'm playing chords here and you can see it change here on the screen. But how does that make sense when you're doing a live performance? Well, I have the ability to record what I'm playing, but if I don't want to record, I can use this in a live situation, like this. I'm controlling this keyboard, actually I'm controlling this rhythm machine with this keyboard. I can change the chords and follow along with yet another keyboard. All of these instruments can be interfaced with each other to control each other, and I can also change the rhythm around. I can also go from one rhythm to a different type of rhythm in the middle of a song. So you can see in a live situation, it allows me to play a lot of different music. For dancers and for people who just having dinner or listening. Not only that, it's a lot of fun."
