Was able to fit some music time in while visiting Kauai this past May. Just had my Baby Taylor, an Apogee Mic and GarageBand on an iPad2. Really stoked with the sound I was able to get. Very clean and direct. The room had a great vaulted ceiling giving a nice natural reverb. Ironically, it was one of the nicest days weather wise during the whole trip and we spent it indoors. :-p
