That's good news, DaveRo. Thanks for the info.
Yesterday we made some trial recordings. The Dear Husband sat at the Windows computer, and I walked here and there around the house, playing short snippets on a soprano recorder while he operated the buttons. The best tone came from the next room, which happens to be our music room. I was surprised because the sound had to come through the doorway, which is a little wider than usual, being built to allow for possible wheelchair use some day.

I estimate the instrument is 20 feet from the microphone, and somehow that smooths out a lot of tiny glitches and wobbles.
