i have somewhere (if i can find it) some field recording taken with a 
mono, 8bit, 16KHz rate from a so-called dictaphone, overdubbed with a 
stereo piano track at 16bit/44.1Khz.. the effect is not so bad.
Well, to say, lo-fi is interseting to me. this proposition is a good 
idea, and sometime big restrictions can lead to cool productions.
