This is by no means a proper "benki live performance" although it is one, in a way, but this is just me getting comfortable with the system again for the 10th time, after making a few big changes to it. 'm yet to know if they are really improvements or bad choices. :)

I may make a video in the future about the current setup.
For those of you who have been following, and have a general idea of what's doing what, these are the changes:
Varigate 8+ has been replaced by the Erica Drum Sequencer.
Monsoon has been replaced by Mutable Instruments Beads.
The "Clean Voice", which was an Odessa paired with a Natural Gate, is now a Rings. Still getting to know it's sweet spots for this kind of music.
Verbos Lead: minor changes "around it" (sequencing, transposition etc..)
Added an Erica Pico Drums for Hats, Shakers etc..
Changed filters after BIA and after LIP, now they respond completely different to envelopes and CV. I'm suing a uJove in bandpass mode on LIP as it helps to limit the amount of space it takes in the mix, frequency wise. It's also easier and "smarter" to bring it in and out of the mix by turning the filter all the way up and essentially fading the sound away rather than muting or attenuating it.

There was no plan or real structure in this performance, because it was just me playing to myself, getting to know the modules etc... Feel free to skip the boring parts.
