I wonder how fancier dedicated multi-tracking software (eg Cubase) gets around the latency problem? Perhaps measures it and automatically provides the needed offset? Anyone happen to know? usually the audio device driver software can report back what the input and output latencies are more or less ...

hello all, i am offering for sale a great Bryan Byrne "Rudall" style flute with minor modifications by Forbes Christie of Windward flutes. this is the flute Barry previously offered in this post . pictures and commentary can be found there , including discussion of the work done by Forbes ...

as it happens, i just researched different versions of this tune. the Laurence Nugent setting with all Cnats can be heard here: http://www.myspace.com/thenorthcountrymusic Catherine McEvoy plays a very nice setting in the first tune of the first set here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh2Z1JY3h9w D...

so, what are you doing here?

fwiw, the signal-to-noise of most inexpensive digital recorders is <90db. this means recording at >16bits is pointless. afaik, you need to spend ~ $500 on the sony pcm d-50 to do better than this. the zoom h2 is the least expensive option i'm aware of (<$200) and has done a fine job for me recording...

here is a slowed down clip: http://www.pacificsites.com/~dog/tmp/ccd.5.wav dan Thanks! I've listened to the slowed down clip 7 or 8 times with close attention, Dan/Bang, and I hear A-tapG-A-B-c(?naturallish)-d with a kind of blip between the B and the c-whatever that is precisely the kind of regist...

Bang, I can only say to that that I cannot see any fingering that looks like c#-tap-c#-d in the runs in question EDIT - this was a response to a now vanished post....... :-? sorry about the confusion. after posting i went back and watched the clip and thought for a bit that i had got it wrong. but ...

I'd like to hear a snappy, poppy example of the Bcd triplet with a C# from someone. Michael Michael, check out your man KC himself in this YouTube clip I linked earlier for the Bc#d run... hmmm. as i listen to a slowed down version of that it seems Crawford is mostly doing c#-c#-d triplets at the b...

i agree that with a good focused blow and snappy fingering it is possible to realize a crisp B-c# transition. but it seems to me that without some sort of articulation it will necessarily be legato. what i hear in Crawford's Bcd triplets is a distinct break between the B and c notes. (you can also s...

Mike, I think you're making extra work for yourself. Using Cnat is unneccessarily cumbersome, and never sounds as snappy as using C#. I've messed with using Cnat, but never could find any benefit to doing it that way. Rob, how do you get the kind of crisp articulation between the B and c# that Craw...

I'm sure there are lots of ways but this one makes that sort of sound: xooooo (b) (then xxxooo for a tiny moment before lifting the top finger) ... then ... oxxooo (c) ... then ... oxxxxx (d) Except that as a general rule, all B-c-d triplets are played with a c#, regardless of the key you're in. af...

perhaps a cable tie:



snip the excess off and the knobby bit should prevent rolling.

enjoy! /dan

Sorry, I beat you to it with the Cochran 001 inscription. It didn't have it on originally, but I had the forethought to know it would be good to have and that one day many more people would know how good a smithy Jon is. So, he put it on for me before I left.[...] Isn't it about time I hassle you a...

well, as i was updating my list of tune names withi colomon's info i realized it originally came from C&Fer Jens_Hoppe in this post:
