pic, that's a great compliment! really....as i keep on 'trying things', i seem to get a little more 'locked in', and find i can make up lyrics as i go along. this was maybe the third time through on that tune, with the lyrics pretty much finalized in my mind.
DB, i think that some of that was the lack of battery in the Steinberger. i was fighting with it the whole way through trying to figure out why it had no bottom, and no pick attack dynamics. kind of shocked me to find it would even make a signal with no battery...but...there is no editing here. the zoom h1 is a 'get it right, or forget it' proposition; it records in stereo, but all the sounds are locked into the two stereo tracks. so, i don't slow down for mistakes....when i get even close, i call it a 'take'. i suppose if i diddled around, i might find a way to push it usb into audacity, but that kind of ruins the spontaneity. i call what i do 'spontaneous disgustion'
when i go get some more stuff, i have a x track recorder. i'm going to bring it over here, and see if i can figure out how to use it. then we'll hear some really strange wailing....the manual is written by a dyslexic blind chinese person.
