Wayfaring Stranger with B.E.'s AMAZING A1 Super-Low Contrabass Drone
A very talented friend designed this amazing double-low bass drone. I've never loved playing an instrument so much. I wish I could get the real "rumble" to come through in the recording.

Hector the Hero - Electric Piano
zhlédnutí 10Před 3 měsíci
I just finished the part of the Iliad where Hector dies. In my mind, this song always accompanies the death and Achilles' cruel circuit with the body after, like, super cinematic and slow and sad. Initially I sat down to play this kinda cheesy, over-sappy take as a kind of joke, but I'll be honest... now I kinda like it for realsies...

Cleaning-up a Hammond 2195 Concorde Organ

Join me as I hamfistedly and illadvisedly blunder my way through trying to improve the sound & functionality of this old electric organ I picked up second-hand a while ago. Compressed air, a vacuum, some DeoxIT, and lots of unplugging-replugging. I hope this might be helpful to someone someday, even if it's only so you can see what I did poorly and avoid the same mistake(s)!

Whistle Alteration Part 1: trimming a Bb whistle to B
zhlédnutí 68Před 9 měsíci
To manage a key change for an upcoming gig, I would like to hop from an A whistle, playing in D; to a B whistle, playing in E. But I don't have a B whistle, and it's not the most common key when it comes to finding a ready-made instrument. So I shortened a Generation Bb whistle, turning it into a B whistle! Cost: $20 for the whistle $7 for the tool and 15 minutes to make the alteration. Recorde...

Threading Bagpipe Drone Reed Seats with Tap & Die Bit
zhlédnutí 243Před rokem
Just in case it's helpful to see it done, this is how I added some threads to my drone reeds seats. *Caution: I'm sure over-drilling could crack the bottom bit of your drone. Just 2-3 threads would be plenty, I'm sure. Proceed carefully if you decide to try it!

A familiar tune that's usually out of reach for GHBs, at least without splitting the octave. The Extended-Range Chanter makes it possible, though, with lots of high-Bs and even some other second-octave notes all the way up to High-D. #bagpipersofinstagram #bagpipehack #bagpiper #bagpipes #bagpipe

    • @heritage.bagpipes
      @heritage.bagpipes Před 3 měsíci

      It seems like the synthetic reed can go higher than the cane reeds, but beyond high-C# or so it still only gets up there with a lot of extra pressure, so the drones have to be REALLY open to keep going across the full range of the chanter. And tuning gets a little silly...

      @heritage.bagpipes Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you kindly! I feel pretty darn sure that, were I to do it again, I could position the holes better. By which I mean: lower, and that'd make it so not so much tape were needed. There are some great pipe makers, like Robert Felsburg www.thequietpiper.com/ who've figured out where to place those back-thumb-holes just as precisely as the front-side holes... my attempt was certainly messy... functional - but not pretty...

    • @heritage.bagpipes
      @heritage.bagpipes Před 6 měsíci

      It'll at least get you close - like, based on the internal measurement I took with calipers, I thought I needed a smaller size than I ended up using -- but luckily the Harbor Freight set I got had a range of sizes, so it didn't end up being a big deal.

    • @heritage.bagpipes
      @heritage.bagpipes Před 6 měsíci

      Ah, good point, I should've mentioned that. I used a really basic caliper, like this one: www.harborfreight.com/6-in-utility-caliper-63664.html?campaignid=12144821732&adsetid=113736752821&product=63664&store=43&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA_tuuBhAUEiwAvxkgTjH4fOuNZK6dlniHtIKjcWbOAanY3XS8AQwvCsnKhGjLV22bp_sFXRoCEbUQAvD_BwE to measure the inside diameter. ***Do be careful, of course, I could tell that putting too much pressure might crack the wood down there, it's a lot thinner than further up on the drone. I think it was helpful to have a lot of hemp wrapped tight around the wood first, to kinda reinforce it, and then I took it slow and gentle. I found that just the slightest bit of a groove gave the reed's hemped end something to, "hang onto," so it doesn't require much. Best of luck with it! I hope it goes well and proves useful!

I never knew PETG could be done this well. So now, when I'm in doubt, I throw it in the oven, usually does the trick. The other possibility is maybe you're under extruding. Might calibrate your E-Steps.

    Not an impressing product in any way. The box depicts software (APP) features that are NOT avaiable for free. The Current free App comes under a new name (the old Zoom name was likely sold for good money!) and is just a simple gadget that does not let you decide the recording format and only uses sound together with video! No tweaking possible. The only feature available in combo with the free App is that you can monitor the result of gain settings for the microphone. Once you have learnt that, there is no point in using it again. Finally, as said in the above video, Flight Mode is recommended for serious use to avoid the very noisy cross talk from the phone when it communicates, incoming SMS or what have you. .
