Hi Jim,

Just had a chance to watch your video and it sounded great. Very smooth transitions between tunes. When you got to the Battle Hymn of the Republic, I first thought great use of the harmonizer then saw your partner show up on camera and blew the whole illusion for me. I noticed you did use the harmonizer on Swanee River though. If I may make a suggestion 'just something to try'; instead of using all 3 vocal harmony parts, try just using a single harmony part above your voice or at the most two. The harmony will more intelligible that way.

Keep up the good work. I'll post something soon to show off my new PA588.

Best Regards,

Dave

Thanks Dave. Yes, that woman is 97! and her singing surprised me too She's a beautiful person, as so many are, and what makes this journey so very special.

I need to fool around more with harmony settings, but I just use stock stuff and go on from there (busy). I use 2 part a lot in Everly Bros, etc and it works, so might try it. Of course, that little Mino recorder is a lame representation vs live.

That said, the Mino has been a great tool for developing myself and man do I need it

Looking forward to see how you master the PA - I'm sure it'll be special with your talent.

I'm continuing to post more on YouTube, so anyone who wants to check out more songs from me can go there.

Jim,

I like! Nice command of the PA800. I went to your you tube site. I love the tag line, "Ole" Nice twist on "Cha Cha Cha"

Thanks Bill and Steve

Just got a chance to listen to this all the way through...I've been busy with Tyros3 clinics.

Great job, Jim...you make it look so easy, and that's the key (no pun intended) as it puts the audience at ease.

It's no wonder you're working steady.
