ah ah ah, yes of course... anyway I can't swear my mixing experience will

I should have been more precise. I bought a condenser mic (AKG Perception
120) to record some acoustic stuff at home.
I recorded a session - st james infirmary
blues<http://www.catastocen.apat.it/st_james_infirmary_blues.mp3>
- and used the punch in/out feature for the guitar solo and for parts the
two vocal tracks (I had a cold... and still got it)

Well, there's an xrun every time the recording starts, ie after the locator
passes the punch in marker... can you hear it? I can give you the exact
timing.
I also got other session (with the full band playing) but I deleted the xrun
markers... and now I really can't gues where they occurred

Regards

PS: destroy the mp3 after :)
PSPS: apologize in advance for the bad english in the recording :(
