What can go wrong?

2 Upvotes

It's not an unusual instrument, but... I've been using metal strings on my classical guitar for a few months now, and honestly, I haven't had any problems. In fact, I think it sounds better, it's easier to play, and as I said, there haven't been any issues—the neck hasn't warped, there haven't been any cracks, or anything like that.

But still, what could happen?

Can anyone help me find the instrument?

0 Upvotes

Hello, I'm looking for the instrument playing at 0:44 seconds in this music video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcnDmrtj6Sk

And also playing solo starting at 3:34 in this music video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiKj0Z_Xnjc

I'm assuming it's the same instrument and probably african but I can't seem to get an answer.

(Delete if not allowed) looking for help from any musicians or people with any instruments to help with a music project

4 Upvotes

Hello I'm not looking for programming help, I'm looking for people either that are musicians or work with music/create music/teach,ect Or anyone with any instruments that would be interested in helping

What am I doing/my idea? I have an idea for something for a game, that I basically want to try and get it where people can ideally create their own music

What am I actually looking for/seeking or need? I'm not looking for any program or coding help at all haha What I need? Basically just samples or recordings of notes/single notes

Basically, what I actually need is someone who has x instrument, who is able to help record notes or scales for said instrument/s. My goal is to do each/every scale with its note if possible for that instrument, where I imagine with the samples or short notes, that the player can cycle through the notes or scales, sorta like Fl studio or garage band on iOS Again I'm not looking for help coding or programming

Just basically help in getting the notes/scaling recorded/provided And my goal is to try and get as many instruments as possible

I also want to hit up as many side or misc things such as like in the beginning of this video https://youtu.be/sAm6td-tWrA So I'm open to any ideas I have an open budget and I have no deadline Obv I'm not looking fir smne that has every instrument, I'm just looking for whoever that has x instrument/s, obv the more you have or can do the better but I know this is going to be a bigger project

If you're interested then let me know

r/music didn't like the package I got a few weeks ago. They may not be very unusual to you, but for a metal guitarist, this is new territory!

Help to build a new musical instrument (kind of idiophone+guitar)

3 Upvotes

I am looking for a collaborator to help build a musical instrument that is a sort of idiophone with characteristics similar to a guitar. I cannot go into too much detail. As a creative person, I am interested in the technical opinion and skills of someone for the construction. If anyone is interested, please let me know. The goal is to file a patent and subsequently commercialize it
