I actually purchased one of her keyboards from the auction - the smallest one that went for around $2k - and the first thing I did when I got it home was to check if there were any recordings or even saved presets she’d left behind. I didn’t find anything, but will check again - maybe I didn’t look everywhere I could have (I’ve never had a Yamaha before so I’m still learning all the controls and features). Either way, it’s such a surreal, awe inspiring feeling to play an instrument that belonged to my musical hero, my favorite person.

Anyway, I’m curious about the projects that this guy mentioned he had worked on with her or that she was an investor in. Anyone know what they were?
Color me VERY JEALOUS!

Depending on the age of the instrument.... if it's newer, I'd doubt she programmed or saved anything herself. At the BuckVie tour stop in Nashville, they had to stop a song they'd already started, and restart, apparently because she was playing the wrong sound. She didn't know(?) how to change it, and her tech had to come out and hit the button for the right sound, then they restarted the song.
