I haven't been able to find a clear-cut answer to my question anywhere, so I'm hoping you can help me out. How feasible is it to play a soft synth live with current technology? Do I need more than a laptop, controller, and sound card? From what I gather, I need some sort of virtual instrument host program or sequencer such as Cubase or Digital Performer. Any help would be greatly appreciated--thanks!

That depends
 If you're only running a single soft-synth (such as Absynth, Reason, Kontakt, or Reaktor to name a few) in standalone mode then all you need is a controller and your laptop. If, on the other hand, you want to run several soft-synths, then you'd be better off going with sx or vstack. This is because some soft-synths, in standalone mode, will assume they're the only program talking to that MIDI interface. Cheers, CR. PS. Reason, especially, is just fine live! Ditto for Reaktor.
