Just for fun; Anyone know what board this is that Prince used on SNL last night? I thought it might be a Roland looking at the knobs, then I noticed the pitch and mod wheels and ruled it out. Kurz perhaps? Maybe those are sliders and not knobs???

OT; tri-lens sunglasses? confused

More importantly, how'd he not plug in his guitar?

Did his sound guy pipe-in through his IEMs: "Uh, Prince? Yeah, um, the cord for your guitar is on the mic stand...sorry about that..."

Ah come on. Prince has been using wireless systems since 1980.
