Thanks a million, Josh.

One more. I could listen for hours (as long as it's not me playing ...).

Thanks. There's a pretty good picture on p.1, without the strings in the way.

I'd take a larger one, but with strings - let me know.

Thanks, and I sure like it! Chock-full of potential.

By the way, how's the turning coming?

And here's that big rose pic - I guess the strings aren't that distracting.

I'd like to make an oud first. Turning the pegs will be the icing on the cake. I am going to keep an eye out for small lathes.

Nicely done Jim.
Could you post some details about the (digital?) recording gear and set up that was used to record the audio files?
Thanks

I'll ask Josh to post the details; it's his setup. I thought it sure sounded good.

For the digital recording (good ears) I used a Firebox D/A Converter, and the included Cubase software (similar to ProTools) which I used to master it. I used a single AKG condenser mic about 18" away from the Oud, and no processing other than fading in and out. Then, I used iTunes to convert the AIFF files to mp3, encoded at 96 kbps to make them under 1mb (I usually encode at 320 or higher).
