Slow Down Recommendations for Mac

Tune ID Please

Greetings, I'm learning a tune I only have listed as "Track 25" in my music collection. It's a gorgeous one and I'd like it's name if anyone knows it. Here's my draft version on the flute (I know there's fancier ways to post clips, but I only thought of using Boxnet), https://app.box.com/s...

Tune Recognition Software Question

Anyone have a recommendation for tune recognition software or app for iphone/mac? I've been successfully using Tunepal, but it recently decided to reject my submissions of tunes, rudely informing me that it didn't hear enough notes.

I recently learned how to make youtube videos so look out. I'm hoping to get some feedback.

Re: Posting clips

Arbo - The volume was perfect, actually. The second tune seems like a challenging one with the octave changes and all. What flute do you have, I like the sound. I was trying to figure out what well known player your sound reminds me of. A bit like John Skelton but something else is in there two. It'...

Thanks Arbo -
I play an Olwell pratten. I also quite liked your reels. You put in some nice, subtle ornaments. Not overblown, but tasteful. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback akiba -

I cran by hitting the d then lifting the f#, then the e and back to d. I learned somewhere that that's one of the many possibilities for cran.

P.S. after December your plumb out of excuses for hooking up :lol:

That sounded pretty good to me. They were close indeed. The second to last jig you played (the one before Christe Barry's) had a tricky part at the beginning of the B part but you seemed to get it. It sounded like some tricky fingering.

Good job.

Re: Posting clips

I've been trying to work on glottal stops but I'm not sure I even really know that they are. I've been making a "Ch" sound while a play and trying to push slightly from the abdomen. Can someone tell me if they hear anything like a glottal stop on this track? http://www.box.net/shared/c49q8...

June McCormack flute book

I just saw a video of her playing and immediately ordered her flute tutorial. She's a lovely style.

Re: Tendenitus/Carpal Tunnel

Thanks Danny for the posting the link about how to include pictures. Brendan - That's right on. I think that may be it. I've already been going to a doctor. Now I've got some good info. Does anyone else remember the time when you'd see a doctor and the doctor would tell you what the problem was???? ...

Yeah, I took the photos using iMac Photobooth so what appears as my right wrist in the photos is, in fact, the left.
