I see that the TP-7 is a field recorder too. That's handy. Are you planning on doing a podcast down the road?

@jameschristopher.bsky.social It's wonderful to reconnect with you, Chris. I look forward to seeing your latest creative works. The music documentary is in the final phase of post production. Work on it was delayed for an extended period, but I'm working on it full time again.
