Why is my Zoom suddenly producing huge MP3 files?
Leonard replied to Dirge's topic in Teaching and Learning
Hallo Dirge, to add my contribution: The file size is determined by the settings the last time you export it. In your case that seems to be exporting from Audicity. The most important settings are the sample rate (to compare with the resolution in picture = how many pixels) and the bit rate what determines how much compression is used while making the file. The settings in Audicity are to be found in the menu under preferences. In the pop-up menu there are several tabs, but "Quality" and "File Formats" are the ones you need. They look like this: Here the default sample rate is in my case 44100 Hz (or 44.1kHz). For your Debussy piece this was set to the lowest possible value: 11025Hz Here under MP3 Export setup the bit rate is in my case set to 128 (kbps). For your Debussy piece this was set to 32. So I'd suggest you set these values as they were for your Debussy piece (sample rate 11025Hz, bit rate 32) and see if this gives the required result. Hope this visualisation clarifies. -
As a PDF download from Alex or in hard copy by post if there are any left. Roger Gawley has a point though, the book was written with diatonic button accordions in mind. Some of that (very little really) transfers to the anglo but precious little to the English. If you just love pretty music books and you're happy with the melody alone however ... Should I summon her to answer your plea? Pete. All of the information is at http://accordeonaire...c-liaisons.html Thanks.

Understand Chord use and the English Concertina
Leonard replied to StephenTx's topic in Teaching and Learning
And see the great diagrams by William Meredith for where to find the chords on your concertina: (Click to enlarge) For further elucidation see WM's article at "the other side" of C.net: http://www.concertin...ish_chords.html -

You don't need a smartphone or a screenshot to see the difference: Scroll down on the page you're looking at to the bottom left. There you can choose between "IP.Board" and "IP.Board Mobile". If your signed in on C.net your last choice will be remembered in your account. After using the Mobile mode on my phone, my browser shows the Mobile mode on my PC as well.

Simon Thoumire does that in slower tunes: just to colour the character of the sound, especially for longer notes at the end of the line. For example: As a more obvious effect in And in an more delicate way in (well recognizable in 0:37 - 0:42) As I just learned in this thread technically this is tremolo, but its musical function is very comparable to vibrato on other instruments; on a violin for instance.

My solution as well. I don't remember the price, but it wasn't much.

Can you play melody and chords on an English ?
Leonard replied to gerardo1000's topic in General Concertina Discussion
Wrong question for this thread: -
Short for Cecilia, patron saint of musicians? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecilia http://www.wga.hu/fr.../1/cecilia.html In the Netherlands lots of brass bands, choirs and so on established in the late 19th and early 20th century are called St.Cecilia or St. Caecilia.
