    Hi Ethan, 

    Thanks for the excellent information.  I am using a Zoom Q2n recorder to capture my practice session.  I would like to do some editing of the file like trim, crop or split.  Can you recommend any free PC app?  Thanks.

       Hi Frank! I list a few apps in the PDFs... the best free PC tools for making simple edits and aligning the audio+video would be DaVinci Resolve or Capcut. DaVinci Resolve is a bit involved and technical, but it's insanely powerful. Capcut is much simpler. However a quick Google search reveals a few others: Clipchamp might be preinstalled if you have Windows 11, and PowerDirector is also nice.
