I only used the bass and drum tracks from the big band style but recorded them in digital audio then layered the other parts orver them in seperate tracks. I didn't actually use the onboard sequencer.


I actually only use this for recording and flushing out orchestrations. My live work is with my band Four Sexes (www.foursexes.com). I have little to no experience doing OMB things. Well, I do have this comedy lounge duo called the Leisure Kings (www.leisurekings.com). We dress up in 70s tuxedos with ruffled shirts and play heavy metal and rap songs lounge style and I use the oldest and crapiest casiotones I can find (MT-68 CT-701, VL-Tone), but that's purely for comic effect. I'm not up on the modern technology regarding auto-accomp for live playing. You guys really know your stuff and how to use this equipment. I'm fairly simple minded and can only master playing my one instrument. I don't know how you guys manage to perform and still know which buttons to push at the same time.



No they only adapted the early years, and they cut some of the music and replaced it with others, i.e. "Give It Back To The Indians" which was not on the freberg album. Is it true most of those orchestrations were done by Billy May?
