Re: High D diatonic chrom?

(last part) Talking about Slide Diatonics, there is the Seydel Sampler as well. It is a “double diatonic”, comparable to Brendan’s discontinued “Irish Session Harp” (ISH). On both of them the slider switches between two reedplates containing each a full range solo tuned diatonic key over 3 full oct...

Re: High D diatonic chrom?

... how Brendan in New Irish Harmonica made a diatonic chromatic in high D. If he turned a standard into that then I will try that. If you mean a "slide diatonic" with this, he might have used this instrument out of his former production: https://up.picr.de/33960915dv.jpg http://brendan-power.com/h...

Re: High D diatonic chrom?

Given that the highest (and standard) key is C, ... no chromatics in production higher than C. The Hohner CX-12 is available in F, E, Eb, D, C, B, Bb, A, G, LC (from high to low). I.e. 5 keys above C, including D as the usual labeling is suggesting. Yours is apparently different. I shall find out, ...

I do have a CX 12 in D.

It is low (a step above the tenor C chromatic).

Is your CX-12 an original Hohner?
Or is it one of Brendan's discontinued customized CX-12?
That might make a difference maybe.

Re: High D diatonic chrom?

I have written a long post to answer and discuss this. But the system does not accept its upload. It shows constantly an "error 403" instead. Sorry. edit: Problem solved now. Seems to be a limit to the length of posts. Now I have cut the post in three parts following downside. dear greetings triona

Re: NEW: Seydel All Minor

But did you consider, that if you change bottom to top and vice versa, you will change right and left as well? And that the length of the reeds get shorter from left to right? The incessions in the coverplates seem to have different length, fitting to the length of the respective reed, not to talk a...

Re: NEW: Seydel All Minor

Triona: I did not expect Seydel would make any reality of this, rather that they both have the tools and opportunity to do it. 8-) I understand that many in most cases concentrate on the ordinary for the bigger mass and not for them few who wants the extraordinay. It would be harder to survive if t...

@ availability: ... 1. It will only be produced when there are at least 20 orders until the last day of June 2019. (In this case I expect that these will come.) Hence it will not be delivered before the middle of July 2019 at least. *) edit: This is an error. I talked to Florian once more to resolv...

Exactly the same question! Maybe I don't Know if the hohner cx 12 in D isn't naturally a high D?

I presume, it is the only one.

Re: NEW: Seydel All Minor

I imagine that the sliders need to have some friction to not move too easy. Have a look on the All Minor's coverplates: 1. https://up.picr.de/35926623qb.jpg 2. https://up.picr.de/35926622pl.jpg 3. https://up.picr.de/35926714ik.jpg 4. https://up.picr.de/35926715kd.jpg 5. https://up.picr.de/35926716r...
