Has anyone tried both of these mics? Would you say the extra features on the dyna-mic is worth it? Also the dyn-mic is a condenser mic, has anyone noticed any drawbacks with this?

I dont see this technique talked about enough, or ever. I notice that a lot of the amplified blues legends often let a little air into an adjecent note of a hole to create a thicker screaming tone. For me this doesnt read as a chord at all, the amp kind of compresses and blends it into one note. And for full chords just let equal air into both holes. Im at least guessing its intentional that it reads as one note and not a chord.

I think this is a really cool and smart technique that doesnt get talked about enough. Its a great way to make notes sound fuller, and make the harmonica scream. I feel like most people just call these chords, which isnt wrong. But i feel like it should have its own name.

A good example of this is "early in the morning" by junior wells. He does this a lot in the solos. I could be wrong and the intentions behind it could be to make it sound like chords, but it sounds like its on purpose.

Whenever i connect to an amp or use an amp sim i basically only hear the clean tone "inside my head", i dont hear the external distorted tone, or it blends in with the clean tone. How to combat this? This is also a problem with hand wahs etc. I can barely hear it irl, but if i record it the hand wah effects are very pronounced. Do you really have to record and play it back to check your tone?

Any producers or studio players that know of any good amp simulations? I mostly record with DI and need some good sims.

Is it guitar, harmonica, piano, sax etc? Would love to hear what and why. I play harmonica so im biased. Sax and guitar is probably in second, cant place one over the other tho. You hear guitar way more, but you got people like Louis Jordan killing it on sax.

Is there any apps where you can both download and edit music(like slowing down and changing key etc), or do you NEED two apps for this? Would be perfect to have it all in one place. I would code this myself, but its kind of a gray legal area, so its a little risky. Im a musician so i need this for practicing.

If i do need two apps, any recomendations? I tested out newpipe as a downloader, but the ads were way to invasive with all of the popups etc.. Any better less annoying apps?

And what do you recommend to slow down or change key/pitch of songs?

I recently made the switch from ios, so dont have much experience with android

I recently started playing more on the chromatic after i got my half valved diminished. Playing on it has proven that the metal mouth piece is harsher on the lips than the plastic on the diatonic.

I Even got blisters on my lips when i learned the hotel California solo because of the high jumps and fast playing.

So my question is how do i prevent this? I drink water while playing, sometimes Even putting a little on the mouthpiece or dipping my lips i water. This works but isnt Scalable. Then i would have to reapply it every other minute. Should i have a looser embecoure on the chromatic? Cause on diatonic you want a deep seal for thicker tone, but Maybe this isnt possible on the chromatic?
