Hey Mac,

Heard your Steely Dan submission on the Ketron site. Very, very cool indeed! From your picture (is that you?), you look to be a horn player. And the horn solos are top notch. Who did the guitar solo? Or are you one of those wise guys who can play anything? And how did BIAB fit in? It sounds like a straight midi arrangement.

Man, you've got a new fan.

Regards,
Darryl



Thanks Darryl.

Well, I am a trumpet player, also keyboards and guitar. Been at this game a long time.

That pic shows me playing one of my Flugelhorns. It is about 4 or 6 years old now. Um, the picture, not the Flugelhorn...

But what you heard there is entirely MIDI domain, all patches done on the Ketron SD2 in Powertracks, using an M-Audio Keystation 88 Pro keyboard controller and also a Japstrat with Roland MIDI pickup to record each part one at a time to the metronome click. With some editing here and there. Done from charts I transcribed a long time ago for a band that did covers and is now a part of personal history as it were. We did The Dan, back in The Day in that little coverband, though. Fun.

Every instrument sound in that file comes from the Ketron SD2. Which was the point of the demo, actually.
