PAGE MCCONNELL'S #phish KEYBOARD RIGS THROUGHOUT 3.0: A THREAD
2015-2016 was the same as 09-14 except the Nord replaced the Little Phatty
HERE IS WHAT EACH KEYBOARD DOES:
Yamaha Grand: this is self explanatory lol it's a piano
Hohner Clavinet D6: CLAV! think Moma, Sand, etc
Hammond B-3: Maze, Steam as the main instrument, used a lot in jams for staccato stuff and as an uplifting texture

Fender Rhodes: Silky, full-bodied electric piano, used on 2001 mostly and can be characterized by the heavy phaser sound in the last couple of years
Yamaha CS60: Meatstick, What's the Use - think that spaceship-y gradually ascending sound

Wurlitzer (Lil Punkin replaced by full-size Wurli in 2019): flatter and funkier electric piano sound - is the one used on most of the Kasvot Vaxt songs and has been a HUGE part of jams the last few years
Moog Little Phatty: Taken out of the rig after Fall 2014, used in early 3.0 for a lot of Suzy Greenberg solos
Nord Stage 3: Chilling Thrilling/Faceplant samples, Turtle in the Clouds dance section synth

Moog Voyager: in the rig from 2017-2018 and used in a lot of jams for textures and more - this is monophonic which means it cannot play chords (only one note can be pressed at a time)
Alesis Andromeda: used in 17/18 for weird sounds, see BD It's Ice (removed in 19)

Moog One: the 2019 synth! Replaced the Voyager; is polyphonic so multiple notes can be pressed! Most notably used in the beautiful 20 minute mark section of the MSG Tweezer
