I'm playing in a jazz combo, using Pianotec electric piano, and I'm struggling a bit with dynamics. There's a part where horns are playing a melody, and I want to play a little riff under that, but you have to be pretty loud to be heard with the horns. At the same time, I want to be able to comp quietly for the guitar solo.
I find I don't really have enough control over the volume on the Linnstrument. I can pretty consistently hit quiet and loud, but sometimes I get it wrong and you get an awkward loud note. This usually happens when I just barely in time realize what to play, and I move my fingers quickly. So I don't want too much dynamic range set up by default because then those awkward notes get really loud.
I'm considering getting an expression pedal to control volume for my right hand.
What do you do to get consistent wide dynamics with the Linnstrument?
