    These are very helpful, I never dug that guys video because he just starts stacking the parts rather than isolating them. And then shouts over it. What a wasted opportunity. Thanks for these. Jerry

    Wow, I know what I'll be working on post-NAMM. Thanks FKS! In your reduction score looks like you left out the natural sign for the C. Another thing to point out is the swing feel, the attitude in his playing. Whenever a guitar player calls this tune that goes right out the window, which is a shame. Finally, I too have always found it hard to get the RH slapping to sound right on a rompler. I think it's the key triggering/lack of sound subtlety. I need a better sampled clav I think. Or maybe it's just me. Don't blame the tools, right? :-) Thanks again! Jerry

    I'm so happy for you, Aspen, and congrats for sticking with it. I still remember you demoing your V1 (I believe) for me at a Summer NAMM in the Korg suite (many years ago!). And loaning you boards for various shows. But true to your skills and genius you've stuck with it and gotten it right. Much success to come! Best regards, Jerry Kovarsky

    Of course you're right, I wasn't sure which he might have been referring to so I name-dropped them both, as they were both used as "string machines". But it was not accurate - thanks. Jerry

    You're confusing the Arp String Ensemble (Arp Omni) with the Odyssey, which is a true synth. Look them both up by name. Jerry

    I saw a vintage Odyssey endorsement ad featuring Tom Coster today, and he describes that Carlos Santana described the feminine quality of it back in the day. So credit where credit is due... Jerry

    I started with an Odyssey and moved into the Mini because it was fatter/warmer/whatever. But there were a number of players who used both, because each had their own qualities and strengths. I liked how George Duke discussed it with me: the Mini was male and more macho, the Odyssey was more sweet/feminine/vocal. No one instrument is the be-all. Joe Zawinul famously never went for the Mini, he liked the timbral quality of the Arp range of products. Jerry
