Here's a couple of quick demos I did on the PA800 using the MP3 board. Pretty much one take , mistakes included.

Worked out real nice, Steve...good choice of styles.

The organ sound in Watermelon Man was cool!

Great playing, but not impressed with the Mute Trumpet featured in Putting on the Ritz. (I presume that was the instrument used) also nice organ sounds on Watermelon man, but defiantly no Hammond.
Look forward to more posts

Steve,
loved the organ in Watermelon man. Those Korg organs have really a smooth and silky quality to them.

Bill thanks. Ironically enough the reason I posted what Korg calls the " Wah Trumpet " and not something else because during some recent gigs at nursing homes and one at a country club Thursday night I watched the audiences eyes grow wide when I used the "Wah Trumpet" Go figure?

I'm enjoying the PA800, thanks Don, Tony, Donny, Mike and Dreamer.

Good stuf, Steve. As I remember, for Watermellon Man, if you're in C, the changes were C, B flat, F. E flat, etc. Could be an option. Sort of like "On Broadway".

Enjoyed it!

HI Steve

Sounds good, glad you're enjoying the 800. As for the wah trumpet, speaking as a trumpet player, you are playing in the octave that makes it sound like a trombone, kind of, so just play an octave higher and it should sound just right

Best

That kid has got some nice moves. I remember seeing him in the past as well.

Scott, thanks for the tip on the Wah Trumpet I'll give that 1 octave higher a try.

Russ, I was playing in F, the changes were F7, Bb7, F7, C7,Bb7, C7,Bb7, C7, Bb7, F7. I'll do a little experimenting.
