The body is a custom conical shape and thickness of aviation grade prepreg carbon fiber, you will not find anywhere else in the world. No offense intended here, I'm quite excited at what you're making but... All the tech talk in the world means nothing to a player :) People buy instruments for soun...

Robgandara, You should send a whistle out on tour to get some reviews posted ;) Or at least find one of the reputable whistle reviewers here and contact them about a review whistle. I bet a lot of people would be more interested if there was some pro buzz to read about your product. I know I'd be mo...

I'll look at it when I get home. I gotta have the whistle in my hand to note it out.

my only real response (aside from voting) is where and when and how much for the pro

Music is a performance, while music itself is entertaining there's a visual aspect to it as well when you're on a stage. you forget that and you're short changing yourself as a performer.

So, I had a performance down at the Texas Renaissance Festival this weekend with my group and between shows I went a rovin as I tend to do. I ran across Erik The Flute Makers shop and a neat little find. There's a fellow there named Cloud McCleod that makes Ocarinas and Flutes out of clay... he also...

Nerd question EADGBE- where are these strings notes on a staff??? Anyone have a picture? http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/4665/94029243ax0.gif With that out of the way ;) This forum is pretty slow for strings in general. If you wanna talk strings I'd recommend mandolincafe.com It's still not real...

it's ok, the tinwhistler's page has the music and the midi so I'm gtg :P I've got it down and I think I can actualy play it fast enough after a night of practicing, I just need to work on playin it like its a whistle and not a saxophone. I have problems with tonguing too much when I learn a song, ol...

I just realized something...

This study is most likely being passed around various music forums primarily... that's gonna skew the results. People with 0 musical interest/knowledge are going to do worse on this test I'd imagine.

Thank you for your participation. You scored 29 out of 30 on the first test and 27 out of 30 on the second test.

Yay, I don't suck!

that has somethign added onto the end that's not in any of my sheet music. Not sure if I'm missing or if they're adding lol.

I hope my singer for this song doesn't wanna do it too fast... if so I'm gonna sound horrible.

I think I hvae it figured out but the ornamentation is hard for me since I'm an amateur so I'm tonguing it all right now, I have to work on my finger precision cause my slurring sounds sloppy still.

Rocky Road To Dublin. I know the true whistle part doesn't follow the actual lyrical melody and for the life of me I'm having a hell of a time picking out the melody. I've got the sheet music in front of me from thesession.org, does anyone happen to know where a decent recording or video of JUST the...

I've been debating a SYN set for a while now, I just hear conflicting reports on the volume which is the only reason I was kicking it around. That and budget but hopefully budget will be loosened by christmas so I can ask my wife to let me buy myself a set for christmas ;) I recently ordered an Octa...

I'll simplify ;) The have to push for the second octave means you have to push to hit it, it doesn't jump up there on its own real easy (i.e. it has a strong bottom end), what I mean by breath gymnastics is that between notes I don't want to have to constantly change air pressure (outside the expect...
