Thank you Scott for your honest constructive critisms. Actually I do not plan on using the harmonizer function at all once I get out playing again. Heidi and I will only do live vocal duets. But I will probably delve into those parameters someday. Thank you.
As far as my hand, I saw my surgeon yesterday (Wednesday) and was told I need not wear the splint any longer but that I also could not just go and do anything I want with my hand. However it will only be another couple weeks before I can.
I still struggle with a lot of pain and stiffness, limited mobility, but the probability of tearing the surgical repairs is a lot lower now. The tendons are still healing, but are almost fully healed.
The nerves however, the numbness to two of my fingers could take another 9 months to completely fade.
I'm feeling much better. Thank you for asking. It's been a loooonnngg 3 months. When I can start really start playing again you'll probably see way less of me here. I'll be busy playing those sweet SA's
Jim
