Well, I sat in on a recording a while back using my 4003FL and here it is... it's my friend Kurtis Foster (alto sax)'s material. The first track (Chaos and Chronos) has an odd feel to start with but I love the solos... I even sorta like mine just a little bit! Who'da thunkit. These were all one-takes and I wasn't a big fan of some of my solos so I had them cut out of a few of the pieces.
These tracks are 100% raw with no plugins or anything. We all recorded in the same tiny room together and I just went straight in through my Ashdown head, using my cab as a reference monitor. The drummer and I got the headphones. Unfortunately Kurtis could only afford the studio time necessary to record, not to engineer or edit anything. Slight exception though--some sax layering here and there.
See what you think... if you like it, please leave Kurtis a positive remark. I think he's a really gifted writer. The guitarist and drummer are also fantastic in my opinion.

Re: 4003FL in the raw
I've got Chaos playing now...My three year old's grooving in the middle of my living room. My 6 year old is asking me for sax lessongs again! I'm gonna have to have to make those repairs to my alto and get him started! They like the music, and I have to say I do too! Still on the first one, though...Gotta listen to the rest! Good job, guys!

Re: 4003FL in the raw
I'll tell Kurtis you liked it! Like I said I basically just sat in on this, but it was lots of fun. I got to come up with the bass parts on the fly, except for the syncopated parts in any of the songs--Kurtis wrote those. Also, of the eight tracks we did record, there was one written by Keith instead--Summer Groove, and I see that that is on that website as well.
