Greetings, Thanks to everyone for their comments. Some listeners pointed out that it sounded "flat", not in pitch but in surface quality (IIUC). I agree. The guitar was recorded direct, with no acoustic feed, unlike what I've been doing on other recent recordings, and the voice was recorded with a single mic instead of the usual pair. I sang in a different room than I normally use, with a different preamp too. The differences add up. :) Best, dp _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
