A ha!, You're right LC, now I can tell by the wrist action -- he's putting weight down with his right hand (like you said) on the VP330 and playing those keys. Well spotted!
The left hand was just playing some bass notes, which I couldn't hear well through my loptop's speakers.

There is no midi here....
he is playing the top synth with the strings/choir with his right
hand while setting up the next CS80 sound.....watch it again... he is
alternating back and forth...

Is this the video in his studio where he has the EII, CS80, yamaha
piano
etc? If it is then there is a VP330 out of view above the CS80 that he
plays
for the string and choir sounds.. sorry if your talking about a
different
video..
