Yamaha has made keyboards, guitars, home electronics, even motorcycles. Being a Korg guy, if Don's new gear is made by Yamaha, will he allow the doctors to put it in???

The last ones I worked with were made by MedTronic, but that was a long time ago. At the time, they were in the process of miniaturizing them to something about the size of your little finger. The first ones were the size of a hockey puck.

Every morning this week I start my computer and check on two things. First and foremost is Don's condition and only after that I check on the news about the arrival of the PA1000. Don my friend I hope you are not doing too badly and that the pacemaker will have you up and running again behind the wheel, or rather the joy-stick , of your PA4X !!!
John: Your sentiments regarding Mason and our daily routine are "spot on" as our British friends say. He is part of the mix of glue that holds the fabric of this Synth-Zone board together.
Even though the technology has improved on Pacemakers and the medical (operation) procedures are a "path well travelled"... there is always the chance that things might not go the way we desire. For that reason, I pray on Don's behalf.
Regarding his talent (as others have discussed)... Mason could make a Kazoo sound great... LOL! Thank you, John... for keeping him in your thoughts. ----Dave Rice

I had the heart cath this morning and the results were good. I will be in the hospital here until Monday morning, then be transferred to the Shreveport branch, which specializes in cardiac care for the implant procedure. So far so good. Thanks for prayers and/or well wishes.

Just walked in from trip to Orlando, Don, so glad things are looking up. A good friend experienced the same thing, and, with a little lifestyle change, he's been fine for several years.
Take care of yourself! You're an important 1/2 of the "Mutt and Jeff" duo...not the most important part...that's the little guy...He..He!
