Vibraphone

Help! I'm trying to figure out how to get good sound on video. Please skip the mic placement advice, I know about that. This is worse than that. I need help with equipment and programs. I have Macbook, Garage Band, good mics, 2-channel Focusrite digital interphase that I'm using. I just go directly from the headphone jack of the interface to the mic jack of the canon camera. I tried using Garage Band and Imovie but I had a delay problem/sync between the video and audio. How can I learn this?

More ideas and approaches to apply to working on Alone Together, and a million other tunes!

Hi Everyone,
Hard to believe but I've just recorded my January show for the new year! As always, I've lined up some great vibes players and their music for you to hear. I know I am preaching to the choir...what a fun choir it is.

Much thanks to Roger Clerc for sending me this video at Pasic 2013 Mallettech booth. Tony and I didnt get a chance to get a photo in together, thankfully Roger took a short video of the Omega Vibraphone and Tony Demostrating some of the features.

I downloaded this tune from Christos' lesson. I had never heard it before. I was sitting at the piano reading it down and was captivated by it. Such a beautiful song. I'm playing it here just trying to be true to the melody and adding some simple accompaniment/counterpoint. The tune plays itself. Thanks Christos! Ed

Check this out for the 2014 world vibes congress!

this is going to be the most incredible vibe event in years!!!

This is all because these great players want to try and organize an organization of vibe players.
I think we need this and this can really help us and especially help the instrument!!!!!!

The tune is attached. The question is, can you put a tag on a tune?

I have two. The one I recently played on. It had a gel damper with no gel in it. Go figure.

I played on one in Cuba, where a person had to sit near me because the posts on the vibes would fall over some how and they had to fix the note. But that was Cuba and I felt part of the revolution! So it didn't feel as bad as it seems now!
