It was absolutely fine here OO - I rechecked it and yes - it is driven quite high - peaking at about 80% or so of max level - or so - but no clipping throughout the whole thing.
If you're concerned at all - it MAY clip if you play forte/forte - there would be no problem dropping the record level to maybe 50% (assuming your recording device has some kind of visual level-meter)
I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh -
Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)

All fine here, OO. I listened with my earphones here at work, and it seemed a little louder than some recordings, like Billy said, so maybe could be dropped a tad if your device allows that. Otherwise, all good 🙂

Yup @OldOgre - as mentioned in the chat - level is fine - it's much less hot than your first take. Also, there's a little bit of background hiss (only really noticeable at start and end in absence of violin sound - and I really wouldn't worry at all about that).

When I started 2 yr ago, there were 2 problems with sitting and playing.
1. Balance- with my high injury level its almost impossible to hold something up to work with it or play. ie. I fall over...lol
2. I was under wound care at the time so sitting was out of the question.
So I basically became more comfortable playing laying down, and there is no need for that peskie shoulder rest. 🙂 Although since I have to rest the neck of the violin on my thumb it tends to cause pain in the joint after some time.
I have actually found it easier to play the violin laying down then any other instruments I play.. which are Guitar, keyboard, flute and trumpet. and all not very good. As you can tell I have not let anything slow me down.
As I said before I took up the violin just to annoy my roommate, but I have come to like playing it. its just the right size to play laying down and I can keep it within easy reach. I have come to like it so well that I have 5 of them now...
With violins there is no fretting over the music.
