I wrote a new song, played it in the Roland E 80 and recorded it in Cakewalk Deluxe Pro Audio as a MP3 file at 192K.
It is a blues ballad instrumental only.
I no longer have a website so if you would like to hear it you can at: http://roland-arranger.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=38&topic=731.new#new

The song is 5 minutes and 7 MB compressed. Too big but it got out of hand
I put this here because many people have wanted to hear the E 80 and not just a Roland demo song.
Best to all,
Bebop

Bebop... Why not upload it to roland-arranger.com? Then anyone who wants to listen can simply get it from there....

good plan, I will look into that and see if I can do it.
I think I managed to get it posted there alrightie. I think the URL is: http://roland-arranger.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=38&topic=731.new#new

Bebop......
I enjoyed your listening to your tune...
& I'll tell ya aside from a few volume part adjustments that E80 has a great LIVE sound. Well played & thanx for sharing!!

Bill, that style is right up my alley, love that type of music nice job!

Way to go youngster! You make that thing sound GREAT!

Thank you all for your kind words.
I have received a lot of feedback from my email lists and everyone is very positive about the sound of the E 80. I think it has a lot of the technics KN7000 sound and will make a great replacement for those people when they need it.
thanks to DIki for his suggestion of putting the song up on the Roland User Group.
I really appreciate your remarks from you people that I consider to be my peer group.
Makes me feel like I am not as much as a "has been" as I really am
Thank you all,
Bebop, now at age 76 but still jamming

Hi Bebop,

You're certainly no "has been"...this is wonderful music...the E-80 sounds very nice and your playing is smooth and confident.

Nice work.

Ian

thank you Ian, You made me feel better all over
Bill

ONe last bump in case anybody else is interested and then it fades into history.
Got a lot of good email response from a lot of people and I was really happy about that.
I think I will get someone with better ears to remix this and keep it for my next cd.
Thanks and best to all.
Happy Easter, PTL
