It's really interesting how a room effects a recording. This one is in my computer room/music room recorded with my FocusRite 2i2. It doesn't come out that warm and needed extra eq'ing in that respect. It still fell short of the tone I get when I record in my larger family room that has lots of soft furniture and pillows. Plus the mics are different. Left mic is a Rode NT-5 small condensor and the right is a MXL 990 large condensor. I normally record two AT2035 large condensors.

This one is on my Larrivee OM-5, capo 2, DADEAD tuning. Arrangement by Pat Kirtley.

Very nicely done...what a high quality recording! Love this style for acoustic guitar. I might ask.....what castle is in the picture???

Thanks Three! I can't take credit for the recording quality without thanking everyone in the "Record" section of the forum who listened to my garbage recordings and gave me great advice on how to get better results. My playing, however is a larger "work in progress",

The castle is somewhere in Ireland or Scotland,I believe.

I like the arrangement you have chosen, Barry - and very nicely played - clean and expressive.

This is Rock of Cashel, Tipperary, Ireland, I think.

Nice job Barry! I love the Celtic songs you have been doing lately!

Thanks Glenn! I'm avoiding the jigs though, lol. Too fast for me.
