Thanks for the info!   I absolutely LOVE the Valhalla Room reverb.  For an 
algorithmic verb, it  can't be beat. I use Valhalla Shimmer a lot for the 
crazy shit.

Again,  great work.

best,

fritz

No fancy stuff  Fritz. A freebie Voxengo Tube Amp Plug in, and the cheap 
but wonderful  Valhalla Room Reverb. The Tube Amp allowed me to 
 
dial in what I thought was just the right amount of distortion and  drive.
 
I D/I'd the tron directly into the computer via a Steinberg MI2 sound  box, 
using a very early version of Cubase LE, which I'll probably have to  

update when I eventually have to change to Windows 7 from XP which is  
currently stable and working great. Grrr!
 
Note. Because I was having motor problems for a while, I did try some of  
the lead tron parts on the 4000D initially, but I replaced with the 
 
m400 because the sound of the machine simply had more bite to it. Thanks  
Martin and John btw for a great job replacing the motor for me.
 
It was a joy to do.
 
Cheers.

Yes, very well  done.  Great recording of the tron.  Andy, what was your 
audio path  in and out for the tron, plugs etc?

Finally finished  this labour of love. Something I've always wanted to do 
if time and  opportunity allowed.

 All me, so no-one else to blame! Lol.
 
Kept to the original arrangement as much as talent allowed, if nothing  
else, to see how far I could take the keyboards I had available in
 
reproducing the "real" performances of the day. 
 
Piano/ Organ. Nord Electro 3
Bass. Roland XP10
Minimoog Voyager.
Moog Taurus 1
M400. Mk2 3 violins. Mixed Brass B.
Everything else M4000D.
Acoustic Guitar. Acoustic Guitar.
 
Drums. EZ Drummer.
 
Various synth/ perc loops.
 
Hope you like.
 
Best to all.
