Francis Capistrano of Narfsounds uses Gig Performer 5 to combine GX-80, Dreamsynth, and Miniverse from Synth Stack 4 for an outstanding performance of Toto's classic "Africa."
This demo shows the Streaming Audio Player of Gig Performer where markers can be set along the wav file and have the sounds change according to the song parts.
The Africa performance featured in this video will be part of the Narfsounds 80s Covers Set 1 for Gig Performer 5 + Cherry Audio Synth Stack 4, now in development which will be available at narfsounds.com.
