@David B.
Followup on this thread.
I have never liked a recording of my playing because it always seemed flat. It did not sound flat as I actually played it for the recording.
After much thinking and experiment I decided on recording with the microphone at about 4 feet away versus previous up close at 16-18".
The result was MUCH better and I know that because most of the time I can not hear myself in the audio clip below. This has to mean that my notes are blending in which would not happen if I were off. There are a few spots where I "lost it" and the violin becomes very obvious.
The violin has a better tone quality also.
I should have been a sound engineer.
(now I have to fix piezo quack)

I am working too hard trying to set up the Zoom G1N, preamps, computer (Audacity), guitar amp, etc. I'm building a small studio.
I hope relief is on the way because my son will donate one of his old movie cameras which he says works great for audio so maybe I can get back to spending more time playing.
We'll soon see/hear.

True genius! I hope someday I will be good enough to play that bad
Let us restore this forum to proper dignity with a performance showcasing the violin at it's very pinnacle ! Watch at least 3 minutes.

That's something else. I could only force myself to listen to about two minutes of that one.
