I tested some new recording gear with a cover of Jack Johnson's Angel.

I fought tooth and nail to get a Zoom USB audio interface, the s2t with ZFX plug-ins, running on my pc. I also installed Reaper, audio recording software.

I recorded my Larrivee D03 with an MXL 991 condenser mic and vocals with the MXL 990 condenser. No effects and no mixing. Recorded in 24 bit @ 48kHz and rendered down to 16 bit @44.1.

I think recording on the pc might have some promise. :) There were a few crackles or pops on the recording, but I might be able to tweak those out later.
