Re: http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/student/viewtopic.php?t=23268
Well, it took me long enough. First I had to get my computer and a new Audio Interface to talk to each other nicey-nice. Which took a week.
Then I did some testing just of regular audio and sample clips. I found out the Master Out potentiometer was messed up, as well as one other multifunction switch. I returned the t.c.electronic konnekt 8 audio interface - great reviews, lousy in person. I don't give electronics a second chance.
I dished out a few more bucks to get a Yamaha GO46 FireWire audio interface. I like Yamaha equipment. It worked flawlessly from the start and does 192 bit sampling of audio inputs.
I did one or two cheesy tests, then took a deep breath and made the first decent recording on y new digital audio workstation.
No excuses, it's me in my beginner Irish Whistle player fashion:
� Playing a new style (all Delrin head) Reyburn Low G;
� Recorded on a single Audio Technica AT2020 Condenser Microphone;
� Through a Yamaha GO46 FireWire audio interface;
� Using Sonar 6 (with a smidge of reverb post effect).
Here's the recording:

Time to dig into the tutorials and books and learn Sonar 6. _________________ Daniel

Thanks!
The playing is a little clumsy because I was watching the recording levels and stuff when I played it. I also usually play it in the key of D Major (Soprano) so the finger spacing is different than usual.
I was just testing anyway.  _________________ Daniel
