Panos, I guess I should explain. I have had a 740 for years that was just sitting on the shelf. I was involved in building a number one web site and wasn't playing at all for several years. When I cam back to the forum I decided I needed another 740 to back up the one I had if i wanted to go back to gigging again. Then reading the articled on playing the nursing homes I realized I really wasn't to old to do that so I really did need a back up. Long story short, Gary Diamond offered me one of his psr 3000's for less than folks where asking for there 740's on ebay and I bought. That was a year ago. Unfortuntly a lot has gone under the bridge in the last year. Last October I fell out of bed and broke 4 ribs. Spent a week in the hospital and 3 weeks in rehab facility. Then in Feb during the flu epidemic I didn't miss out. Spent a week in hospital and they say I almost died. Any way, I finally got the kb set up in the back room where I can work with it and have been spending an hour or so day on it. Why not more? Now at age 75 I'm having severe problems with arthritis and it's mostly in my hand and fingers. Hurts to play to long,
When I do play I push buttons that I don't quite know what they do. I find new and amazing things on the kb every time I set down at it. I have the manual printed out and in a loose leaf notebook next to me and I read the lessons here at the PSR tutorial site. I have learned though that reading an explanation, and even understanding it is not the same a practicing do it. I have also learned that I am a slow learner when it come to all of this stuff. The one saving grace is that once I learn something I usually really have it.
So, Please stick with me. You may be sure I'm going to be asking a lot more dumb questions in the future.
And by the way, I do need to publicly thank Gary for selling me the 3000 and rekindling the spark!
