What I need is yet another fiddle, dedicated to the octaves I guess Bob - I added some reverb in an attempt to move the overall sound somewhere towards that from a "larger bodied instrument" ( LOLOL ) so you're not really hearing the true sound.

And strictly (although I'm not going to do it) the nut slots should be widened/deepened as well - BUT that brings other issues - I can carve a new bridge to swap between normal and octave strings - but I really do not want to mess with the nut - if it goes wrong, re-fitting normal strings could well end up with them being too close to the neck. I have intentionally taken the short-term risk of not yet doing it, just to see/hear the difference once they are properly set. Strictly, I should (and I intend to) widen the bridge grooves slightly to accommodate the thicker octave strings - there is a chance with the normal groove that it may pinch the string, possibly leading to damage (of the winding).

Thank you folks - no it's not affecting the bridge in any way at all - although - the BRIDGE may be affecting the STRINGS. Is the reverb all natural from the room or did you add some? I've been thinking of adding some to my recordings through VideoPad, but have been doing most of my recordings with Debut because of it simplicity. In this recording it comes close to sounding like a cello
