Also, I plan to reattach two of the metal terminal boards which have fallen off. They have been glued several times in the past, it appears, and I was going to use double ...

Importing a WAV, using the melody analyzer.

I have my own WAV files from other recording programs (cubase, ableton, garageband) that I can bring into BIAB. After reading the posts in this category, I found the Melody Analyzer and then saved it to BIAB. Now what? What I was hoping to do was put some drum and bass track to it. For me, the probl...

Pedaled,, pedal harp, pedal steel

When, in some form of music instruction, the term "pedal" note or 'pedaled notes' is used, is there a relation to the pedal harp, or just the piano? Has anyone compared the copedent of a pedaled harp to a pedal steel? Has anyone tried to emulate a pedal harp onto a pedal steel rig? (maybe ...

my take on this

Any cheap beater console single or doube necks

I am looking for a double neck or single neck project guitar. If it needs TLC and/or parts, machining, and you are willing to let it go cheap, please let me know. Or if you have an extra single or double neck you would consider renting for 3 to 6 months, or even rent-to-buy, again, that would be gre...
