Re: Harmonicas with Modular Reedplates
Thanks for your positive feedback and suggestions regarding the Modular-Reed harmonica, Dorothy. I'm glad you're loving yours! As far as keeping large numbers of spare reeds safe and well catalogued for easy retrieval goes, that's an interesting question! It was one that we had to solve ourselves, s...

Re: Harmonica andiPad connection question
Thanks for the nice clear pic of your iPad setup Rishio. That's a USB audio interface, which is what I use also (iRig and TC Helicon versions). I'd recommend USB to John, although the basic analogue iRig 1 interface will work fine with iPads with headphone ports if he wants to reduce his costs. Gara...

Re: PowerBender Versus EdHarmonica
Sounding good Rishio! As I think we discussed earlier in the thread, I've used my own version of ED Tuning for many years. It's the same repeating scale, but starts on a hole higher up. It's the bottom octave of Paddy Richter (or Melody Maker) repeated, so I call it Paddy-Extended. ED uses the same ...

Re: Harmonica andiPad connection question
Hi John, I was thinking just the basic iRig 1 interface you mentioned. Plug it into the headphone socket of the iPad. Your harp mic 1/4 inch plug goes in the guitar input, and you can listen via headphones or a lead to your amp from the mini-jack headphone outlet on the iRig. Othe similar audio inte...

Re: Harmonica andiPad connection question
Glad you like the video and are interested in exploring what the iPad has to offer for harmonica.
When using an audio interface, the output cable comes from the interface. The analog type plugs into the headphone socket, USB type plugs into the lightning socket.

Re: Sheet music, tabs, and then THIS ...
You're right... This excellent TAB must have taken sooooo long to do! Days and days and days....
However I bet some clever person could come up with an algorithm that could train an AI to do it in seconds...

Re: Chromatic with Offset Tonics (COT) as applied to PowerChromatic
It would be, starting on hole #2:
DE FG AB CD DE
But you're right: because the doubled D notes are different breath, it's not the same as the Solo pattern (where doubled C notes are blow).

Re: The SlipSlider MK3 is Released
Demo of full 3 octave chromatic scales on a standard Richter diatonic harp with blow and draw bends alone... Nothing is lost: overblows/overdraws are still available.
