I felt like joining the party - great contributions folks !

So - thanks to Panda's fine efforts, I have done a "play-along" on top of her sterling work (the accompaniment version) !  I retained Panda's original as the most "present" part and my play-along is mixed in.  It's not very good - this was my first attempt - but I enjoyed trying it SO DARNED MUCH I had to share it - and I sure hope it doesn't overly detract too much from Panda's original work!

Details -

* Panda's original captured in .wav format, then played back from Windows media player

* Played along on EV with no effects, recording directly to laptop using NCH RecordPad

* Mix performed using Audacity - and roughly lining up our start-point....

* Final capture of combined tracks using NCH SoundTap

As it happens - RRV was the first tune I picked out on the guitar, over 40 years ago......  this doesn't half "take me back"  ROFL...

I'll try get a solo version with video if / when I can arrange the cam and get feedback on bowing technique.  I have posted the joint RRV on SoundCloud - this embedded link should play it I believe -

I would say "enjoy" - but that's probably too strong a word - just let it drift over you !

Well, thank you Panda-P - it was a blast!   My guitar work has always been solo, and on the very odd occasion I've had to "join-in" I'm ruined - unless you do this all the time - it's very hard to immediately adapt to other players' tempo, timings, individualities and so on.    But the RRV is well-known to me, so matching the original timings wasn't so difficult - and was able to throw in a bit of improvisation -  anyway thank you again - without your original work I wouldn't have tried....   It's a PARTY - yeahhhh... Cool !

That was the first time I did violin/guitar a duet, if that's what you mean. I tried to do something before that, but it was guitar/guitar.

@Panda-P 

LOL - no, no, no - it wasn't a reference to your efforts at all - what I was referring to were my own limitations.  Basically, in over 40 years of my playing guitar, I have always found it very difficult to play along with another performer (unless I break off into some kind of freaky lead).   I've read Pierre's and others' comments regarding playing in an orchestra - to be able to do that and play alongside upwards of 70 other musicians must be totally awesome!

So, for me, even attempting to do a play-along on EV with another performer after my short exposure to the instrument - was like a "real first".  My words weren't a reference to your accompaniment track at all!    

And by the way - rather than just hijacking your work I *should* have asked you if it would be OK before I did combined track - but I didn't want to post the suggestion in the forum - and then fail miserably !

Finally - 

@Barry @StoneDog @KindaScratchy - thanks for your encouragement !
