Thanks for all the positive feedback! As far as the technical questions, I did not use any sequencers. My LP was plugged into a Fender Steel-King amplifier, eq'd flat, then run out of it's direct-out into a protools m-box. I use the Steel-King for it's great spring reverb, which I pretty much use on everything. All the tracks were then hand played one at a time into protools. It's basically one A section repeated 3 times with a tag. Some of the tracks I just played 1 time, then cut and pasted them for the 2nd and 3rd sections. The only real manipulation I had to do, was for the main melody that happens during the 2nd and 3rd time thru. When I over-dubbed a harmony for the second time, and a octave doubling for the third time, the portamento times made them drag too far behind, so I shifted those whole tracks ahead a bit. Add a lot of delay plug-in, shake and bake, mix and serve.
