Weirdly enough, my Windows doesn't recognise the .ogg extension, but if
I rename it to .mp3, it plays. Clearly I have a codec set up that didn't
put the right extensions on or something. Good to know.

If that was 12 takes, I'm quite impressed.

Well, if you've been a professional musician for a dozen years, yes, you
can do that. I heard (on a CD) the very first take of the Star Wars
theme music. It sounded perfect to me. Of course, the conductor refined
it repeatedly, but *I* couldn't hear any flaws in the first time it was
played. It's kind of like reading out loud, or typing what you're
reading without looking - once you've done it enough, it goes right from
eyes to fingers without conscious interpretation.
But for someone who doesn't practice at least 3 hours a day for several
years, it's pretty impressive what you've got there with that little bit
of work.
