Thanks, Roger, for letting us in on the best kept secret of the PS5UG - Smeedo can play sax! It was a pleasure listening to. Thanks, Smeedo. Collin

A little electric piano would be a cool addition, no?

and yeah bp, he can really play . . . soooo tasteful . . . . so, we have germany, scotland, and usa represented . . . .
this is what is so darn cool about this piece of equipment . . . i noodle around with accoustic guitar just playing the same thing over and over, frank hear's it asks if he can lay some bass on it (and what bass it is), then smeedo privately asks if he can play with a sax riff as accompaniment, and next thing you know this accoustic practice session becomes something a bit bigger and better . . . see mike, i'm trying to get out of that less is more . . . . .
and hf, electric piano could be very cool . . . . .

It's nice to finally hear some real sax. Yeah, maybe a nice Fender Rhodes sound. I'd remix the bass down a tad tho. C'mon Roger, write some lyrics now! Nice job from everyone.

Well, thanks for all the praise - what a great website. I've fallen in love with my PS5. I'm now working on another tune, using the PS5's own rhythms - a disco one, but it sounds fairly Grover Washington Jr. with the soprano sax on it.
Then need to try with an imported midi file and I should then have a better idea of how to use the thing.
Still want to get as much work with others as I can - as I said before, anyone want some sax ?

Beautiful piece guys. Roger as I recall, Bassa was one of the first songs you posted here when you first hit the scene. Nice Bass Frank and great sax Smeedo! (now come on, what's your real name? ) Jim
