I wrote this a few days ago and finally got time to record it today. I used my Lanakai uke for the uke/vocal track into the onboard mics & ran my Epiphone uke  straight in for the solo. Done in my car, using the 008 for audio & the DR-V1 for video. I specifically wrote it with 2 parts so I could use the picture in picture feature in wondershare. I also has to synch up the audio for both the vocal video & the solo uke. All in all it was pretty easy the whole video, including pulling song off the 008 & finishing in audacity, took me under 2 hours.

1 uke/vocal (stereo)
1 solo uke

Nice work on "I Work" from The Elantra Studio Hook!  The Uke solo video inset is a great way to show the track layering. Last but not least....great DEW!
