"Summer Wind" by John Schroter
recorded July 4, 2018

This is a piece I've been working on for a few months. I had the day off to celebrate Independence Day, so I went for a recording. I was pleasantly surprised to get this in one solid take. (ecstatic, actually)

I recorded it with a Zoom H1n on my Essex EUP-123S Upright Piano. It's not the best microphone, but it's the best I had available. I mixed it in Final Cut Pro X with some built-in Logic Pro X effects (EQ, Gain, Compressor, Stereo Delay) as well as a tasteful touch of Wave's Abbey Road Reverb Plates plugin.
