          1. They're just getting going with this project, but I know what my suggestion for band name and/or first
            social media release will be.

      1. Nah. Went to see if it would get line out on the desktop [ where it was originally loaded ] except that now has WIN-10 and and Presonus thingy said, " WTF. We don't recognize this. Nope. Nope . Nope Sign in. Wrong key.Sign in, wrong key "
        So I withdrew from the contest, at least for now.

        From the list of tunes they sent it, it's not really a B-3 kinda sound. This sounds like a church organ to me [ but you know how good my ear is, so…….? ] Anyway, the stock Yamaha voices will be fine.

        eta: I guess they thought they had a female singer, but they were wrong, so that was part of the holdup.
        I guess are now gonna get the band in sync and look for a singer .

        1. I'd be able to get that sound with a hammond, but you're right it's probably a Lowry or Baldwin church-style

          If i could see/get hands on your setup i could probably get it working. where's zippy?

          1. I think you were right that it's the sound card situation that's not allowing outs. If it were necessary , I would expand the attack by getting a newer [ re-furb ] laptop. And still might. For now, it's chill time. By 10:00 pm on Friday it may not be an issue at all.

            I thought about asking zippy, but it sounded [ hah ] like he's got his hands full.
            Besides, he may be at the point where it'll look like I'm trying to do this with two rocks and a bent stick. I think he can now synth two orchestras and control a PA and mixer from his wristwatch.

  16. I just saw Little Women tonight. It was fantastic. I had not gone to see it until now because the book meant a lot to me and I did not want to be disappointed. But this is the only afternoon I have time to see a friend of mine and she really wanted to see it, and now I am really glad I did. Highly recommend it.

          2. [ I arrived at the point of ignorance rather quickly, debating whether to resort to google to continue the thread………. ]

    1. a. "Long Chile" is OK with me as long as there's a respectable Scoville number.
      b. Who got the Grand Tetons?
      c. Ohio 2 's "sole purpose is to make people frustrated" is redundant. That's Ohio 1's purpose.
      d. I'd take up arms to prevent Florida Lengthening. Nobody needs more Florida.
      e. If she thinks that combining New Hampshire and Vermont wouldn't in itself lead to WWIII, then she's obviously never been up there.
      f. Do we really need more Texas? Idaho?

      2. I approve of consolidating some of the redundant states. She doesn't go far enough, though.
        Also, my county in CA is bigger than either New Hampshire or Vermont and we don't even warrant our own Representative, so that move is also approved. Anything to lessen their impact.
