Mario,
Have just been listening to 'Looking Back'. You truly have a wonderful voice. I never actually got to see the video because I got sidetracked by your song samples. Thouroughly enjoyed them. It is 3am here in the UK....I can't sleep and so am sat here with the headphones on listening and enjoying.
The very best to you
Tony

Just listened to some of your tracks Mario and was extremely impressed by both the the arrangements and your vocal treatment. How did you create the backing tracks ?

Very enjoyable !!!!!!!

Tony and Nigel:
Thanks for your kind remarks about both my voice and my album.
The whole album was recorded with the PSR2000 sequencer, and used Cakewalk to "clean up" the tracks and record my voice.
Fairly easy procedure with a basic setup. I used the Edirol audio Capture to interface the analog KB and Mike outputs to the PC. The rest was all "creativity" on my part. Isn't technology wonderful?
Mario

I ocasionally, visit this forum [I don't have a PSR2000 yet, lost my job]but I keep dreaming about having one very soon !

Beautiful music and voice Mario! great sound and arrangments congrats!!!

HE'S COMING, MAKE MUSIC, GET READY!

Mario,
That helicopter is fantastic!
It must be an expensive hobby(especially
if you crash) but
looks like great fun.

Vilo, Vquestor:
Thanks for the encouraging words guys.

Vilo,
do not despair, you'll get a job, and the KB, and then...."the sky is the limit" my friend.

Vquestor,
RC Heli flying is a lot o fun, of course it can be very "unforgiving" as well. Things can go awry pretty fast, and when you crash? Well, you know. Fortunately, it doesn’t happen as often at my stage. But, oh!….those early flights!
Expensive, yeah…but all worth it!
Regards,
Mario
