Re: Harmonica andiPad connection question

Thanks Brendan. I really appreciated your iPad series - it’s been gold for me. It confirmed in my mind that it could work and gave me the insight to get started on my own system. Right now I’m having fun keeping it simple with Garageband. As I gain more experience, I’m going to try out some of the o...

Re: PowerBender Versus EdHarmonica

Hey Brendan, I’d be happy to change the name of the Title for this thread (not sure how to). I kind of don’t know why I called it one tuning compared to another. They both have their advantages and disadvantages - and this is your forum so my full respect to the history of the tuning as you say. I a...

Re: Harmonica andiPad connection question

Woops, I missed this thread when I posted my iPad setup. I use it for both live performance with no noticeable latency, and also for recording, as shown in the FB links below. The software I use is Garageband - nothing else. The speaker I use is awesome, as it has AUX in without latency (a rarity th...

Amplified Harmonica with the iPad

I’ve always been thinking about a more flexible and simple way of using the iPad for live performance and studio recording with the harmonica. Brenden Power’s series on the iPad help solidify this direction and inspired me to take the next step. I’m now Amp free and have a setup that all fits in my ...

Re: MODULAR-REED HARMONICA - Released!

Hi Rishio, We have Paddy-Richter Extended. This is the same as ED Tuning but starts one hole to the right. I've used it for a long time, and recorded with it on some tracks of "New Chinese Harmonica". For example, Track 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjlIZLiFETg Yes, I am aware of this. I was i...

Re: MODULAR-REED HARMONICA - Released!

I just discovered monular-reed harmonica last night. What a fantastic invention!! I’d like to see ED Tuning offered as an option in the drop down even though it is not to difficult to manually build. I do have a couple of questions. - Does the adhesive wear down after a few times of taking it apart,...

Re: Hohner PentaHarp (a 1990s alternate tuning)

I’ve been using ED tuning exclusively for the past few years and I find striking similarity between ED and PentaHarp. That said, I much prefer the layout of ED. PentHarp and ED both start 3 octaves lower than standard richter, which is nice, but PentaHarp extends 1 semitone higher than ED, which is ...

Re: PowerBender Versus EdHarmonica

Hey Brendan, Not quite yet. I had been practicing a lot but I fell ill in Asia with Tuberculosis and the financial strain plus health challenges put a damper on practicing for 3 months. I am better now and back on it - but not quite ready to share. I suppose that’s the ultimate answer on how the tun...
