Technical

This piece can be done solo (both parts) or as a duet. Because the melody is mostly arpeggios you can leave the pedal down a lot and get a nice full sound. There isn't much mallet dampening you need to do, again, because of all the arpeggios that make up the 2 parts. The tempo marking can be adjusted up or down as you need. The piece sounds pretty good either slower or faster, which makes it a great piece for players at all skill levels.

i´m a little upset.i got relative good recording mics and euipment and the sound of my video´s in the uncompressed original format is always good.but if i compress it to make it fit to youtube the sound always gets bad.anyone of you has any idea if it´s possible to compress just video quality but leave the audio at best level.i tried different programs but couldn´t get anything for free which makes the job.tonys videos always have a good sound qualitiy.

Mario shows how to set the Gate time on the Mallet Kat

Since there was talk about vibe mics, I thought I'd post something official and see if we could get some talk and photos.

I use and sell the AMT Vibe Mics and I love them. 3 mics, 2 above and 1 below. It's a great set up and the sound is fantastic.

About the Mallet Kat metronome.

This cat is a true vibe geek. I don't even hang, don't even come close. He's in league with Piper!
