Thanks Tsquare! Been a bit busy, and trying to catch up with you.

All sounds, save for the drum track, done on the Casio CT-670.

A very nice job Tsquare! WHAT Casio keyboard did you do this on?

A quick summation of what's going on. Track 4 is the MMT-8 programmed with the string patch ( I don't know WHY I didn't write the patch # down!) and the SR-16 Drum Track. Record tracks 1 and 2 and then collapsed to 3. Recorded over 1 with chimes and Rhodes and 2 with Guitar. The pan structure is a bit weird, admittedly, but it all works out with a total of six instruments over 4 tracks and the mix is nice and uncluttered!

Well here's my track sheet! It took me a bit to decipher myself because this is 25 years old!

Yours is in order! Mine however, I can barely decipher, because I took a wrong turn somewhere! ALWAYS "Save To Paper" though- because computers CRASH but paper doesn't!

Tsquare, you just made my month, with your kind words. As soon as I can decipher my "chicken scratch" handwriting, as concerns my track sheet, I'll tell you more about this track! One thing I can tell you NOW, is that the "Navy Bell" chords were directly inspired by Harold Faltermeyer, because he did the same thing at the beginning of TOP GUN ANTHEM and THAT was my way, of acknowledging his pure genius on same! Again, Thank You!

All sounds, save for the drum track, are exclusively from the Casio CT-670.

BINGO!

Once upon a time GODZILLA did not start out as such- he had a different name, which was GOJIRA. CASIO was paraphrased/changed in a similar way, owing to the four brothers who first started the family business. What was the last name of the brothers, originally?

In 1990, I picked up the CT- 670 and it would be my ONLY demo recording Keyboard for 7 years. I did a lot of stuff with this baby and, to this day, it remains one of my fave Casio Keyboards EVER! https://soundcloud.com/skyy38/fields-of-white-with-pierre

Always glad to help! You're Welcome!

The ONLY thing wrong with the MZ-X series was that it was released to market as a "half finished" product. It STILL doesn't discount the SOUND advances that CASIO had made, up to the point of the MZ-X Series release. Anyone remember the ALESIS FUSION debacle from 2005? And also, remember THIS classic line... "We will sell no wine, before it's time...…." Any "airplane" taking off from the strip, that is only "half finished" will surely *crash*………..

And, not to "gild the lily" or anything like that, but this was ALSO done on the SAME CASIO Keyboard as the previous example!
