Donny,
I applaud you for all the care and prep you put into your music. I'm sure there are many others here who do the same thing, but I have heard it on your recordings - it really makes a difference.

I, for one, have never been much of a tweaker. I think the last time I tweaked or programmed was with a Juno 106 and a drum machine. When I hear some of the arranger demos on SZ I often wonder how they achieve some of the things they do. I guess it's all in knowing your machine and tweakin it to your needs and liking.
