Hi Old Dude,

I think you are on the right track. I listened o St. James Infirmary and thought it was a good, clear recording. Maybe the vocals could be taken up just a little bit. I listened to some of your other recordings just to compare and St. James Infirmary has a much, much better sound. Less background hiss (I didn't detect any), and just a more natural ambience. (I thought the performance was good too!).

What recording setup are you using? I have been working with a Zoom H4 and Audacity, but I am still not satisfied with the recordings I'm getting. I know Audacity is free and you get what you pay for, but right now that's what I can afford.

Anyway I think the quality of this new recording is very good.
