Steve D mentioned an "irrational" fear of the punchin/punchout recording

technique. Ron Parker and Cesare Marilungo commented--

Thank you very much, Ron and Cesare. I'll try both approaches and

hopefully I'll learn how to exploit both the digital-audio and MIDI

punchin/punchout recording techniques.
Regarding the digital audio (rather than MIDI) approach, I'll try to

space the punchin and punchout points a little farther apart than I

normally would, to give me a greater choice *after* re-recording the

section as to exactly where I want the actual punch to occur. (I hadn't

thought of that, obvious though it may now seem. ;-)
Thank you,
