Hey Jim!
 
Antonio and I have rebuilt the engine in the Piper cub. I'm going out to Frank's tomorrow to replace the ignition switch and then we're ready to test fly it. This week I'm stripping and prepping the cabinet for the 'Wasted Days' Tron and hope to have it ready for paint by the first of next week.
 
Come up and visit.
 
 
Frank

I like mixing sad strings and angry strings, which gives you "Deeply Troubled" strings.
On the 4-track, you can play any combination of 4 sounds. I like to mix Sad Strings, Angry Strings and Dickstrings, which gives you "Sad and Angry Dick Strings," which, oddly enough, is entirely unsuitable for Prog.
 
Sorry... couldn't resist.

...for adding such great sounds to the Mellotron library. The French Horn, Clarinet-B, Angry Strings and Chamber Woodwinds sound great! French Horn mixes well with Clarinet-B and Clarinet-B mixes well with Chamber Woodwinds. Angry Strings is excellent by itself.
