Very nice JC, I'm really impressed. Is your oud connected directly to your computer when you recorded that? How are you getting such a clear sound?

JC1907 - 7-8-2006 at 12:00 PM

Actually, no.

Ud is connected to a small amplifier. I didn't use any special equipment. I recorded this with a logitech webcam. Including sound and video. Seems like it worked out fine. I should have lowered the microphone volume little bit more to avoid the buzz..(next time I guess)

JC, that was awesome bud. Can't wait for the "next time". :airguitar:

Mike,
I am glad to hear you liked it... I'll record more.. I have been playing the oud for about 18 years now. I like the community on this website and I want to be more active hopefully..

Regards
John

well done

If I could play as good and even produce a lot more buzzing then I will be the happiest man in this forums.

Keep posting more of this good playing mate.

Thanks for sharing.

Enjoyed it very much. Who is the maker of your oud?

JC1907 - 7-10-2006 at 06:36 PM

Andy,

I purchased this oud in 1999 in Istanbul from a luthier named Ozgur. My oud instructor Osman Nuri Ozpekel recommended him. I have been very happy with this instrument. It's easy to play and tone is nice. I would like to sell it sometime and get an electric oud since I play on stage a lot and electric oud is more practical.
Thanks for nice comments

That's a beautiful taksim John. Nice oud too. But I think your playing is what makes the oud sound good.
Thanks for sharing.
