Vibraphone

I was just having a conversation about this topic today and thought it would be of interest to some of you starting to try and make money playing music.

I love David Friedman! If Marie is our 'mom' of the site, then David is our 'dad'. He's so supportive. I wish him the best birthday ever!

Wow! Check out what they did. They used the recording, but it's impossible to sync everything up. You can see it in Gary's comping. Man Astrud is beautiful and the sound is amazing!

Hi everyone,

This post is further to my shoutout earlier on...

I've just ordered a pair of SE1as on trial from SE-Electronics.
You can see them here: http://www.seelectronics.com/se1a-pair-mic
They're pencil condensors - perhaps not the perfect mic, but a massive step up from the dynamics I've been using up until now.

I think they come with a stereo bar, so that you can put both mics on one stand, and separate them slightly.

Does anyone set their mics up like this when playing live? Does it work as well as placing them apart?

I thought was really beautiful music!

Man I have a funny feeling that there's a lot more stuff happening on the vibes these days. Or maybe it's just more people posting on youtube, but I'm seeing some cool stuff online!
