Thanks Clay, you are too kind. It is one of mine, an exercise in harmonic composition, my music theory is not too good but it starts in c minor and ends in G. 


I have just bought a USB interface to replace using the microphone input on my laptop to record from the mixer. The flute part was a very free improvisation. I used Audacity to do the recording.


I am really happy with how #1565 is playing and sounding, it's great to be using it rather than working on it!


Mark


PS For some reason if the laptop was powered from the same electrical adapter as the tron and mixer all I got was a horrible humming interference sound. Worked fine on battery took me a while to work that out.

Hey Mark 'Debussy' Pring:
I like the resolution point at 1:30. Is this your composition? I wouldn't call it crap.

Speaking of Debussy, somebody needs to record La cathédrale engloutie with Mellotron. It probably wouldn't take much to talk Mike into it.
