Just got this thing and it's awesome...here's something I ripped off from Bruce, features the steel in a supporting role...the wheels come off at the end though, LOL.

Very nice!! The last band I was in played the Chris Ledoux version from the album "Haywire". We took the tempo up about 10bpm to give the song a little more "drive".
Your recording sounds great. Bet you got a great deal on that Roland! |

| I was blessed with one several years ago. They are great! I use mine to practice my steel through with headphones or through my studio monitors. |

Jeremy, that's a great track! I'm not sure exactly what I'm listening to...is that your band?
A band you recorded?
Obviously that's you on steel, but who is the band?
Good singer! |

| Tony, that's me on everything but the drums. I recorded the music using a cheesy drum machine and sent the file (minus the drum track)to my buddy Steve Demetrician who added the real thing. Glad you like it. |

| They're great machines......I did a few demos on one and they came out very high quality. Even the amp models are decent. |

Jeremy. Nice. My drummer had the 880 and we did a lot of "Live" recording. He tapped it into the PA system and what came out was really great. In fact we used a lot of the live stuff for Demo CD's that I sent out with promo pacs for bookings. He now has the 1680 and my goodness it's twice as nice. We are using it for some overdubs of the shows we play. I think that you would love the 1680. We do.

Check out my website:

The MP3's found in the downloads section were recorded on the 1680. They're from our CD. |

Jeremy,
I bought an 880 in 1996 when they first came out. The price........$2000.
Go figure.
PS. It came with a whopping 540 mb internal hard-drive.
