Funky version of Out of Nowhere that ends abruptly at bar 13.
So it’s a work in progress lol
Midi bass, drum loop from Cubasis, Harmonetta in the foreground, and melody on chromatic.

I liked it too.  Maybe the Harmonetta could be softened a little.

I will back it off a little in the next iteration.

This is a version of Over the Rainbow in F using the PentaSlider.
Just one A and one B section—followed by the “chords”, F Penta, F# Penta, G Penta and Ab Penta.
Check out how legato the tough part is.

Those A, G and D are a bent notes, right?

No bent notes, except for shading.

Entirely possible!
But they are “given” notes, not bent to pitch.
I can always tune the harp sharper—it was tuned to LeGato, and I recently retuned it.
The basis of the tuning is Power Chromatic, with an added hole—so 5 holes per octave.

This is a Facebook Live version of Coventry Carol—I made a background loop and then played over the top.

I thought that sounded wonderful. Interesting instrument and sound.

Very interesting - never seen a harmonetta in action before. It has a nice tone 8).

The voicings on the Harmonetta are much more flexible than on the SSCH, I know you can do a lot of things with a 48 Chord, but you can practice the Harmonetta in smaller spaces.
I am getting better!

The Hits just keep on coming!
Theme from Romeo and Juliet, chromatic melody with Harmonetta chords and synth bass, recorded on Cubasis, transferred to the laptop, imported into Sound Forge to convert to mp3, hope you like it!

To be honest, Gary is playing it a bit differently than some of the 'old pros' I've heard (and even some of the newer old pros).

Frankly, I'm really enjoying how he's going about it - and the tones he's getting...a different take which works for my ears. :)

Thanks folks, this is the way to improve.
I notice some of the Melodies are coming out flat, think I need to tune to 443.
