Playing recordings made by other people is akin to looking at photographic prints made by other people. To participate in audio as you have with photography requires making recordings as well as playing them back. If one does this, one soon realizes that this is an art as well as a science.

Yes, Tony, true enough, but doing photography is perhaps more like making recordings of yourself making music. Or making music in your own studio.
One might think of limiting oneself to photographing with an old simple box camera, and it would put an interesting limit on your work. One can, and people have, done great work with such constraints. I cant imagine anyone being much interested in doing recording with a cheap 1960s tape recorder you might pick up at garage sale.
There is a large scene of photographers devoted to working with a toy camera called the Diana.
When one takes a poor picture and then makes it presentable as a record using D Lighting, Image sharpening, all kinds of adjustments etc, what is being recorded?
I suppose it's like Moog Strikes Bach which was interesting but was a result of electronic manipulation (I am not sure if the musician, or the technician produced it).
Same great work can be done with simple equipment. It does need to be in good repair.

Photographers love the Diana camera because it has such crappy lenses, and no two the same.
