Forum Topic: prototype pickups and computer compositions for vibraphone

Hey everybody,

I'm working on some computer + vibraphone compositions and a set of pickups for the vibes. My idea is that the pickups are used for effects and processing on an iPhone and the dry vibraphone sound is either live or picked up with regular mics.

Anyway, here's a little demo of where I am at the moment!

And there's more information on my website if anybody is interested:

Let's Comp - Comping Questions? by Tony Miceli

I'm going to put the word out to Behn, Ted, Mike and all the other guys for comping lessons. I'll also do some as well.

Let's start off with questions? You have any questions about comping??

I always tell my students that everybody should always have questions about everything in music. Even the pros. That's the sign of interest, I think. If you're interested in something you think about it and have lots of questions.

So...... Have any questions??? :-)

John Keene Was Right

A while ago John Keene was recommending Rhapsody the music streaming service to us all. I disagreed and thought it was better to buy the mp3s. I thought a streaming service was not cool. Man I was wrong.

I pick a tune do a search for it and play along with track after track. All these different versions and interpretations of the melody. I'm using Spotify and I pay the monthly fee. It's so worth it.... and great for practicing tunes!!

Thanks John!
