Most other sounds were derived from a Roland JV-1010.
For backup ot was a mix of WAV files created from said MIDI's and occasionally NI's Bandstand if not too demanding. Never really had to use the backup WAVS because several years ago we switched from a 2 piece band to a fully live 5 piece.
The backing tracks did sound way better than your average MIDI or other backing tracks due to decent drum and bass sounds.
It was great for repeatability and consistency but not as organic or powerful as a fully live band.
It worked very well though and I still see it as a valid way of getting out and gigging, earning and enjoying yourself.
In truth from some points of view it is a good way to work and with only 3 band members it was easier to change and refresh the set regularly , admittedly not as much of a vibe and power.
Made for a nice low balanced on stage sound though.
