can anyone write me down, what are main differences between Orbital playing live and other electronic bands 'playing live'??
i know that Orbital are improvising a lot and can screw it up sometimes as everybody heard in Brixton 24th in the middle of Remind :) thats realy nice 'addition'.

can anyone explain me how and what they push, pick, pull and so?? i have no idea how it works. do they have some sequecies and timing when to press this and that buttom or what??
thx and excuse my unknowledge :)

Orbital never 'screw it up', they have 'live features'. <finger wagging>

I hardly ever even notice the 'finger trouble' and, even when I do I soon forget about it.

You should consider them one of the boyz' many endearing characteristics.... <smiley face>

just found this which explains things, briefly, in laymen's terms.
