Re: WEEK 1: Exploring Carcassi's Etudes @Peg That sounds great, Peg. I think that will fit this piece perfectly. I’ve never played that one, but it’s nice. It reminds me of Sor.

Re: WEEK 1: Exploring Carcassi's Etudes @Brett Gilbert Thanks for listening, Brett. I used the same mic on everything here, so maybe it’s just a different placement. It’s nothing fancy - it’s a USB mic that I got at Walmart for about…
