Thanks Don! I do train my voice almost everyday and I can get through a four gig just fine without pain, but I meant it's nice for the audience to have some variety. but If the venue can't afford over $200 then they will get just me....


Also Don M, I know you have posted some real nice stuff with some guitar players. Maybe since your mainly doing private events now, you might want to another player or two?

As far as "locking in" with an with the auto accompaniment, luckily I've worked with musicians that have no timing problems. They do sessions and live shows all the time with clicks and sequences. Recently I did a gig with my prs 950 to my left of a nice Steinway Grand and I hired a really great jazz bassist. I used the drums patterns playing very little and some times the guitar auto accompaniment too.

Drummers (at least the ones that actually study the instrument) are used to playing with a click. Just look at that 13 year Japanese girl drummer that we saw here on Synthozone last week. She had no problems playing along with the track.

Gary, the Jim Z Band sounded great! When you played your keyboard with them were you using any auto accompaniment with them?
