Just about ready to dump my IPad Air, as I can’t set the Zoom options so that others can hear me play. Will try to find a laptop that will accept a mic and earphones. Any suggestions? View

      Hey Owen, thanks for asking the community. I wish it was easier for more people on here to see posts like this.
      I’d imagine your ipad could come in handy for many uses…

        Hi Owen,
        I use a mac book Pro and a Scarlett interface which lets you plug in a mic, instrument & headphones. Works well for Zoom & Garageband

        Encouragement.

            Joanne, I loved how you interwove double stops into your improv. They didn’t seem forced at all. Very beautiful and nice bowing as well.
