Proof Of Concept
For a few years now I’ve been collecting wee bits of recording equipment with the hope — the dream — nay, the phantasy — that one day I’d have the time and the setup to do a little knob-twiddling in the comfort of my own home.
Between computer crashes and other dreary responsibilities the opportunity never knocked. Until now. Christmas fast approaches and Grandma wants a little something by which to remember the grandkids, such as a CD of Ben’s violin virtuosity and Mia’s creative interpretations of the Rogers & Hammerstein canon. Ah! Time to get to work!
Anyway, today for the first time the equipment functioned as it should. Thus, I offer you this one-take wonder. Next time I’ll pay attention to those typical tropes of Timing, Tempo, and Tuning, but for now I’m just having fun.

Congrats on getting it set up and working! I hope this doesn’t come across the wrong way, but I have to admit I was a teensy weensy bit disappointed to hear a grown-up voice instead of a kid voice on the recording.

I think my rockstar ambitions are best focused on the kids at this point. You know, putting pressure on them to make up for their father’s failings. I think Dr. Dobson recommended that, right?
More tips for perfect parenting to come…
