Wow - I am most grateful to all of you for listening and for posting such nice comments! The whole thing started out as an experiment with the recorder and just went from there.

Deane - I used 4 Registration buttons:

1 - Etherial Movie (1st variation)
2 - Dreamy Ballad (1st variation)
3 - Dreamy Ballad (2nd variation with added Multipad "Strings Ballad #1)
4 - Etherial Movie (1st ending variation)

I turned off the piano comping in the Dreamy Ballad style and cut the style volume back a bit. Probably could have raised the volume on the left hand a little more.

Again, I am most grateful for the "listens" and for your encouragement. I love playing the arrangers and am having a ball "taming" this new ride!

Very nice performance. You really have a way of decorating the melody.

I’m just curious if you’ve tried the chord loop her yet? I it would be a great tool for horn as player/ keyboardist like yourself. You could play a chorus on the keyboard and go to sax while the keyboard is looping. Could you give that a try, and let us not know how that goes?

Hi Lee - I have pretty bad vision these days, but in my normal upright position, I have absolutely no problem viewing the screen. For this video, I was backed away to keep my noggin' from blocking the camera. Normally I am more upright. In both cases, no problem viewing the screen or seeing the colors and content. Thanks for listening!

MontunoMan - I have only played briefly with the chord looper and I agree it could make it very interesting by allowing a horn player or guitar player to stand up and take a solo. I have played a few gigs where I took the keyboard and my sax and once I get comfortable with the looper, I can definitely see a utility for playing a tune on keyboard and playing a chorus or two on the sax. I will bone up on it and try to post something in the future. Thanks for the listen and the kind words!

Ditto on all of the above, looks and sounds like you are making great music with your new SX900!
Glad to see you working with the reg system, I am sneaking in some time to do the same for a few Xmas songs on my 970. .. .
Very smooth my friend!
