  1. Here's abc I transcribed from the file given above: tks v much.
  2. any helper abc/midi or fiddle performance around ? tks
  3. Luvvly. Impressed too by the depth of echo -- is from up in the nave or from under the kilt?
  4. V good!! "Touché!" Spent an hour on saturday wrenching away on a spanner trying to tighten my leaky diesel fuel pump. Thank goodness there was no Sacré bleu [translated as s...ing smoke] coming out the back. I suppose a wrench here is more of a burglar's preferred tool, or as the Japanese would say a Klay brothers method of encouragement, as opposed to its workshop use in Merrica. Yes, it's a key because it locks and unlocks the nut/bolt when you turn it. I prefer to use the word clef myself although I never know which key to choose to sing along in but it does gives rythm to my work ........... But that still leaves confusion: What is a Roman à Clef? 3 Aug 2010 ... Roman à clef translates as "novel with a key," which really doesn't explain much in English about what the term means. ... www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-roman-a-clef.htm
  5. I would prefer your assisstant Rosie Lee who holds your magic box when you do your tricks!
  6. Ta for the tips which will look up. We have tech trouble with Audacity - exported mp3 selection produce a "not fat32 application" error message and wont open. These audios from sessions are more for those who played at the time and who often like to hear back the overall 'noise' rather than expectiing to hear the latest New York Met breakthrough! :rolleyes:
  7. Oi! I claim first place, pleeeaaase, in the queue for your master classes for dummies: anytime, anyplace, rain, snow or fog, by river or stream, at midnight or even five minutes at the stage door would be a boon and privilege! :)
  8. Posted here as per Ken's instructions under videos and toons. Cutting one large sound file into 14 min sections for youtube's 15 min max InsightandMind and self have used this free software once to chop up the Swaledale multi-hour long files. It is a bit short on explanation but was not too difficult to master. You need to differentiate about folder and folder contents to get the specific file from the source in the left column into the right column. Setting how long the cut should be includes hours minutes seconds under Tab operation/options but it is not too clear so we dekcoc it up to start with putting 14 hour sections! Before you tell it to cut the file it looks wiser (if not essential) to rename the master file so you keep the original. Again, could be clearer. The very fast chopper produces a rather strange file name format -- the number of the cut is after the word 'Section' = e.g. (2) Section 1 (2).mp3 ; that was cut no. 1! But if we remember rightly the cuts did not have our file name of the general source e.g. swalenightmusic.... we had to add that to the (2) Section 1 (2).mp3 identity... we think. Be interested if anyone has tried it before or if there is something better. Massively easier than trying to cut and edit in movemaker (incromprehensible location of the WMMM extensions it produces) or Audacity (with files which it says can only be re-used in audacity) It does mean that it may cut a toon in the middle... and those with the skill and the time might want to fight Windows moviemaker and delete or merge necessary ends and starts. But it does make access to long sessions easier, rather then them sitting on the shelf. here is the url http://www.mp3-cutter-splitter.com/mp3_cutter.html
  9. TONIGHT! sEPT 6 2010 :D

  13. Will look.ta In the meantime I have half a dozen of the bendy cable ones of this type in bag, car, bike etc and I attach box(es) to a chair or radiator, so nickers would be noticed carting a chair out.... http://shop.ebay.co.uk/items/__cycle+chain+lock_W0QQ_dmdZ2?rvr_id=133179111935&crlp=1473044501_228459_228460&UA=WXF%3F&GUID=cd4c358912a0a0aad5304e50fed50fcd&agid=709294661&MT_ID=11&keyword=cycle+chain+lock&ff4=228459_228460 There were (maybe need power from battery) voice locks- Keep away or I am being stolen.... for motorbikes. This is a bit dear at 29 quid (tho some cost up to 200 quid)to go on my People's Ulbricht German Angglo but for a Jeffries a snip.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CYCLONE-V2-MOTORBIKE-MOTORCYCLE-ALARM-IMMOBILISER-/200398793491?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item2ea8b2eb13
  14. Whehey!!
  15. I reckon it is worth a lot!Particularly as eggs are so cheap. Could also do wonders for more air : concertina soufflée et meringuée.... On a lighter note this is definitely worth trying and obviously has a sound scientific basis, ref. elastic properties of albumin. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2621.1989.tb03100.x/abstract and this is even more convincing: http://www.net-lanna.info/thaiscience/Article%20for%20ThaiScience/Article/1/Ts-1%20thermo-mechanical%20properties%20of%20egg%20albumen-cassava%20starch%20composite%20films%20containing%20sunflower-oil%20droplets%20as%20influenced%20by%20moisture%20content.pdf Must try tks.
  16. Were you playing a bass tina? :blink: Tried to find a recording of Durham Cathedral's 'banned' long bass pipe with no luck** but sounds like Augsburg is well in the reverb league! http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=3Wpn7xyzUqg&feature=more_related Rather messy Durham at around 1.49 And I offer the other end of the scale - crystal echo http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=5LgipaPfQww&feature=related
  17. After 16 years of learning I am sure they are super tina players who are fast with the beat! And here's how to combine an i-pod app Englitina lesson with a good rythmic heartbeat... so you have music while you work and keep the cardiac sufferers happy! http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/aug/30/iphone-replace-stethoscope :rolleyes: and recalling an earlier thread on how slow we are to bring in new technology: http://www.concertina.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=11399&st=18
  18. Finally...I hope......... Swaledale nacht-musik – this batch of No 9 to No 16 starts on Saturday evening and the earlier uploaded numbers 1-7 were after midnight on early Sunday morning. These are uploaded courtesy of InsightandMind so any bellowsing-up should be kindly laid at their door! Nos 9 and 11 are playing tricks somewhere in the ‘belows’ of Youtube and you may get a duplicate..just enjoy or hate it twice! PRIZE Desperately seeking several displays of a C#D virtuosity somewhere amongst all these. A prize for the person who spots and gives the timing and video number….. A fresh egg (from the 2009 hens looking in on the squeezer geezers eating chicken suppers in No 16). It will be posted to the winner on receipt of a stamped addressed envelope which meets the Royal Mail envelope regulations for first and second class letters……..

  19. I don't know if this will help as I do not understand fully - it may be some Merrican dialect and needs bleep subtitles.
  20. Afraid? Is that typical of philosophers? I know that the name Kirkegaard translates as "cemetery". Now there's an epistomological quandary.... or would this be his alter E-go.... Søren Aabye KiErkegaard (5. maj 1813 – 11. november 1855) var en dansk teolog
  21. Found him: It is Bryanclocks1 - he is in Lincolnshire http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/bryanclocks1 occasionally sells oldish German anglos which go for between 40 and 100 quid and tey are no great shakes in the antique concertina money stakes (Lachenal and Wheastone are in a different league), but they did and do work.
  22. As mentioned by others, get in touch either with Theo (near Newcastle http://www.theboxplace.co.uk/)or Chris Algar at Barleycorn near Stoke on Trent, and go together and see them. Chris certainly often has cheap, classical boxes which are in good working order though they may not be Concourse looking and anyway you can resell later or upgrade with them. http://www.concertina.co.uk/ Also somewhere there is a restorer who likes to repair faded boxes and sell them cheaply on ebay so they get a new life and it is a hobby so they are not dear but perhaps someone else can remember his ebay name - something like brianclocks.... If you are near Coventry then Pete Grassby may have something to suit http://www.actionability.co.uk/PG/ and near Welshpool/Shrewsbury Rees Wesson does melodeons but he occasionally has concertinas http://d1073320.mydomainwebhost.com/
