Thanks Len and Milan! Len, that's incouraging. I was thinking that maybe it was because I am running a graphical desktop, gnome, plus Orca to give me speech output. But Ardour's graphics are probably not much less of a load if at all. So, system tweeks it is. Milan, thanks for the critique. Yes, it does lack confidence. That's likely because I wasn't even sure if the thing was working. :-) It was a total test recording. Guess it went ok. :-) Now I just need to find some time to work on more! :-) Rusty On 6/20/13, Milan Lazecky <espiritocz@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Exactly, very natural - I like it mann :D > I stopped listening to reggae but now this reminded me that it IS music, > from heart.
