Thanks Wolf!  Last night I might have taken a step toward significantly reducing the rig noise; if so, maybe I can eventually attempt something worth putting on a CD.

Dave, if you need some noise reduction or mastering done, get in touch. I could probably clean it up a bit.

Thanks Edwin!  That would really be helpful.  I'll let you know when I have something for you to see if it's usable.

Dave:
 
Just got a chance to listen to Houck does Beethoven.  Suh-weeet!  When some high notes kick in about 2/3 through, it almost sounds like the flutes or violins joining in!  
 
Bill, tgo

Thanks Bill!  After six and half years of playing this bass, I'm still amazed at the tones it creates.

I just uploaded a new track, here.
 
The overall quality of this track seems the best I've done yet; there are only a few noticeable flubs, and the consistency of the lines is getting better.  Getting closer to something perhaps worth putting on a CD.
 
The raw recording was done on my new Zoom R16.  I used Audacity to take out line noise and to set the beginning and end, including the fade out, and to also raise the level of the track to a 0db ceiling.

Very nice, Dave - very nice, indeed!
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

I like it Dave! I'm listening during a set break. Relaxing... feels like a cello counterpoint would fit in there.

I like the calmness that your tune presents Dave.  Very cool!
