Dave,

I couldn't agree more with you on the vocal aspect. I've been fortunate enough to play with some very talented individuals, but most of the bands that had these talented people met with limited success due to their lack of vocal ability. Then again, I've played with bands that were lacking in instrumental talent, but had excellent singers and well you know where I'm going with this.

One of the reason I purchased the 9000 was because it had a built in vocalizer and of course for the health benefits. After all carrying around a PSR9000 for a year I now can bench press over 200 lbs. It just recently, that I've decided to get serious about using the harmonizer, epescially for the solo work. I don't know if I'm just a slow learner, but it seems that using one of these contraptions is not as easy as I thought it would be. I'm sure that all the tinkering will be well worth it though.

Thanks everyone for all your help and if you have any other suggestions I would be very appreciative.
