Main takeways.
1) I wish Master volume was more readily accessible.
2) I forgot to do a "Stop All" on the clip matrix prior to triggering my first clip and the entire 1st row triggered, scaring the hell out of me and the audience as it was pretty loud. Maybe have an option to "Stop All on Load" or something.

Congrats on the gig. Nothing better than performing live!

Great idea, I also put an EQ on the master, mostly for low end. I rehearse on headphones and have no idea what the low end is really going to sound like.
