Just incredible beautiful tunes. Brings the nostalgia to the surface. Robin, you're an incredible multitalented player and you have a keen eye for fine instruments. Thank you.
Thanks Dusty - I learnt the tune from a youtube clawhammer banjo lesson. I've found the limit of the Audacity timeshift tool, which is about 100th of a second. Annoyingly, that's just enough to place a little phasing between the tracks (I was playing tighter than the recording would mix ).
I mixed it on a set of Behringer Media 40 USB monitor speakers, which are far more bass heavy than the AKG Reference Headphones K702 that I normally use. So this has a lighter touch on the bass than the track I mixed on headphones yesterday. I really love the AKG headphones as they are totally neutral but I think the Bheringer speakers probably mix more appropriately for what a majority of listeners would use for playback.
I'm going to record our local Welsh MVC for a CD over the next few months so I need to get some mixing practice in !!!!!!

Bringing back that real old-time sound, Robin! Thanks!
Sounds so beautiful together, Robin!
Thank you! Yet another tune to learn!

Good sound and good mix Robin. I love that you have incorporated this great old tune with these lovely "antique" instruments. Thank you for sharing.
Sounds fantastic.
It's neat to hear these two old instruments paired, Robin!

Sounds great, Robin! I've been playing this one on a little octave dulcimer, but I learned it from a clawhammer banjo recording.
