Help For My Midi Impaired Keyboard Friend Options

[rlarsonusa]

Hi there,

I'm a old horn player in a R&B band with an old keyboard player that takes too much time between songs to change his keyboard settings and was wondering if there is a reasonably priced program that runs on a mac to help with this.

My midi skills are minimal since I currently only use it for input with Finale.

His set up is a couple of keyboards (Roland and Alessi, I believe), and they are midi capable. He also has a software program that has B3 sounds (B4?), but he's not ever used it on the gig.

Ideally, the software program would save the settings used for a particular song (for both keyboards and the sound module) and then, on the gig, just id the song we are going to play and midi would take care of the rest.

I've read about Reason and Ableton Live, but they seem to overkill for what's needed. He has a Macbook and assume it's Intel core duo. Don't know how much ram he has.

Thanks for any suggestions.
