Depending on my gig I set up the G differently. Right now I'm preforming in an orchestra with it for a musical at the local theatre for this because it is the same sequence of patches each night I have the live sets in order and then as you guys said use the foot switch, defiantly easiest way. For other gigs I where it is less structured I have used the favourites because it allows me to be a little more creative. Often times I uses patches and live sets that are not entirely for one song so when playing if I feel an electric piano coming in then one press and i'm there. If preforming this way I usually have a few EP's, a piano, and a couple of strings and synths. You can make each performance unique this way. The one thing great about using favourites is the ability to import a text file. I like having a few performance notes on screen at times to just remind me of key areas. Really when it comes to performing which ever works the best for your situation, thats why I use both.
