The best teacher ever

Aww thanks!

[@CurtisThorpe]

Super nice, I've been considering getting a pair of ribbons to record hammered dulcimer. Thanks Ken

[@kenshorley]

Ooh yes! I bet that would sound sweet on your dulcimer!

I would say that cascade is more problematic, art is nice especially for the price, royer seems to already cut the mix even in solo:)
