Derek,
May I suggest you convert your song to MP3 format. Yeah it's sucky but I couldn't get your file to play. I have the current version of Quick time but all I get is a ? mark. :?
Would love to hear what you do though.
I use a freeware called NCH... here's a link if you need one.

Ok, I'll do that; I would like to get a better recording too though. I recorded Maple Leaf Rag with my i-Pod. :roll: Do you know of a good way to record just at home?

If you're going to use your i-pod you probably should search for a better mic that you can plug into your device.

This may only work for the I-Phone but you'll get the idea.

Some people use hand held recorders like the Zoom you can upload to your computer for editing.

Or set up a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation).
For a few hundred bones you can turn your computer into a simple digital audio studio. Professional studios spend tens of thousands of dollars on equipment.

Unless you have money to burn... do some research.

Derek It worked... just gave a listen.
I enjoyed that. I don't know much of the genre just some of the more popular pieces mostly Joplin. Very cool though!

Thanks, I used the program you showed me to convert the music file. The download also included an optional video file conversion program, I used that too!
