I have sort of a specific question with regards to using a specific combination of software and hardware to arrange a live show the way I envision it. I'm a piano player and write a lot of hip-hop/funk/soul/blues compositions in Logic Pro. I'm very aware at this point that Logic, when it comes to performing live, is pretty crappy.

So, here's what I want to be able to do:

My idea of a live set, being done my way, would be to have a customized library of different patches (keyboards, synths, even drums) available to be pulled up and played immediately using a MIDI controller (in my case an Axiom 49-key) and software. I'd like for the audio feed from that to be connected to a HARDWARE looper (if this is possible). I'd also like to have a mic hooked up to the looper for me to record any live sounds I'd like to loop.

Basically, I'm trying to find a way to create complete, full songs, on the fly, using previous ideas for chord structures and/or improvisational creative whims.

Would KONTAKT work for my imagined setup? If not, what would? Am I even thinking the right way, or is there a much better solution for this?

Thanks in Advance! :cool:
 
you said that logic is pretty crappy for live performance, are you talking about mainstage? because it can do everything you want to do from what you have listed. it just a little bit of a learning curve!
