Regarding the original post, that's a delightful bit of video. Pleasant song and a pleasant young woman. Sure, ears that have spent a few years working at this recording obsession can hear that it's a home job, but it's a very well done home job. Goes to show you can make pleasing music with what you've got at hand if you take the trouble to learn how to use it well.
Too many of us fall prey to the fib that it's our gear that limits us, when the sad fact is we aren't getting the best out of what we've already got, and will only be falling even farther short of the potential if we collect even more spendy stuff.
