You guys are doing great. It's what I wanted. It's really fun to work with people who do the work. It's gratifying and I teach but I can also learn from you guys.
I will do more of these!!!!
Your imagination is only limited by what you know!
I love this quote and it sums up everything for me.
I know what it means to me, what does it mean to you?
I've been dreaming of a graduated bar Mallet Kat closely matching the playing surface of a vibraphone.
*** So you can use the same ingrained mallet spread or spacing for both instruments !
A Mallet Kat is essentially an electronic mallet instrument that plays any sound you want.
All the pads are the same size.
You plug it into any amp or sound system. We may add a built in, for practice, speaker.

Today's coffee hour conversation touched down on this twice, once during the discussion of mallet hardness (pretty universal agreement that music not heard is music not good) and again during the discussion about the role of lyrics. These are concepts I have been wrestling with for years and my ideas are not yet fully formed, but let me know what you think~
I believe there are four modalities of the sound we create with our instruments.
