Re: INTEGRATED SLIDER-MOUTHPIECE - Tech Tuesday #7
In my opinion, JDR made a mistake with the tuning layout of the Trochilus. Due to the comb design, the two blow/draw pairs in each mouth hole are adjacent to each other, separated by a comb divider opening to a slide hole. Since the slider is pushed from the right and moves right to left, they shou...

And some prefer to use the Seydel Nonslider as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NODxyDbg5ZQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEvQN94VJ1c Btw: He is using the Seydel Gecko / Farmer holder in these videos. And here is a more sophisticated tune played on a Nonslider solo without holder: https://www...

Re: Seydel 1847 Slipslider Project
Brendan, this is similar to Seydel "All Minor" harp as far as I understand. This is something I'd consider to switch between Paddy Richter / Richter / Country tuning, if only I 1. played Seydels and not Suzuki with phosphor bronze reeds 2. didn't have nice shiny promaster gold coverplates which I r...

Re: baroque harmonica and power chord harmonica
No wonder that just you appreciate the idea of a Power Chord Harmonica . :mrgreen: This is the slider of my Sampler which I had removed: https://up.picr.de/47499996ie.jpg I think it is pretty much the same design as on the old Hohner 270. And it is fitting exactly to my Sampler from which I had remo...

Re: Slide Diatonic tuning ideas for blues and rock: "Wilde Slide" Tuning
Very interesting ideas indeed. But a little bit too complicated for me to follow at first sight. I must think about this in a quiet hour one more time. :lol: But as far as this: Slide-in One Fourth Up (or Down) I am experimenting with this idea since several years. For it does not hit exactly the su...

baroque harmonica and power chord harmonica
Coming from this I would like to report some old ideas of mine: Slide-in One Fourth Up (or Down) I am experimenting with this idea since several years. Since its arrival in 2016 I play the Seydel Sampler. This is a double-diatonic with a slider to interchange between 2 keys. It is substantially the ...

Re: Ideas for changing a diatonic harp tuning on the fly
First question about what confused me: Are you a left-hander or is your video mirrored? And here my contentual thoughts: I do not think that you can omit the spacer between the draw-reedplate and the bottom slider. The draw reeds do not only stick out of the surface of the reedplate. They even need ...

Re: JDR Trochilus: A Look inside and its potential as a customizing platform
BTW: Is this part called "slide" or "slider" in correct English? I have seen both of them.

Re: JDR Trochilus: A Look inside and its potential as a customizing platform
:idea: Aha! Indeed I suspected that there must be something quirky with this layout in connection with the movement of the slider. But I just could not grasp what it might be. I could not imagine the layout following Dominick's description. And I missed to count the holes on the Trochilus's slider. ...
