@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…

Re: WEEK 1: Exploring Carcassi's Etudes
@Martin I will give it a try and let you know! I worry that it will give me one more thing to think about while playing, but maybe with practice muscle memory will take over.
