Hey! Excuse my dumbness but what is a Whovian??
I guess a lot of people pick up instruments in school. I played the oboe and played in the school band. I was ok but not great and I think my true love was always for making music with electronics! I do love hearing (and making) music mixing 'classical' instruments with electronic ones though - I'm currently experimenting with a Piccolo sample in a track I'm working on.
Good luck with Hive - it can be a bit of an overwhelming one to start with but well worth it. I started about 4.5 months ago and now it's my primary goto online community.
A fan of Doctor Who!
Thanks - I keep looking at electronic wind instruments, but there's something about the sounds that isn't good to my ear. It might be because I don't like the preloaded sounds, or simply that I prefer the actual clarinet/sax/recorder sound. It's not the same instrument really. I suppose it's a synth marketed to wind players.
Oh of course! I should probably have known that!
Interesting about electronic wind instruments - I think you probably have the right idea that they should be treated as a different instrument - one with very different possibilities though!
Looking forward to reading your posts on Hive and hearing your music...
