wait, what?

So, now that I have all the equipment working, I made a test recording today of a new mandolin instrumental (called "January") I've been writing, and got the equalisation drop-ins and such working, and did a stereo mixdown and export to figure all that out. And it worked, yay!

Then I threw it at a few people online to get reactions. I know the noise floor is still too high (that's why I need carpet, to build sound baffles) and it's kind of a sloppy playthrough, but I wanted to see what people thought, and how it sounded on other speakers, and, um, suddenly now ysabel is my first sponsor for my first CD, and my brain is all essploded! HI FAIRIES! Here's a shout-out!

i guess that means it's pretty good. omg

Yes, yes it's pretty good.

I asked if I could share it with someone for a reason.

And I still say that the slop, even in your quick test recording, is not something a non-musician will notice.

I was away from the computer most of the day so I missed you online, but I would have loved to have heard it. All progress is good progress, right? :)


Glad you're having fun with this!
