I was referring to keys only in my DI comment, I all also play guitar on 60% of our material and play through my guitar amp for that - either mic'd or unmic'd depending venue size. Playing keys through the PA means I do not have to carry two heavy amps to the gig, and importantly for me I can keep the KB volume under the vocals because I get both in my foldback and do not have rely on this being mixed correctly by the house sound guy(or no-one). For KB solo breaks I can ramp up the volume myself.

Well I struggle with that even as a bass player. A *lot* of my bass tone comes from 10" aluminum cone speakers. Sending a DI is usually kind of pointless, but I'll do it if that's all FOH can handle. -pc
