The Samson Carbon 49 looks like the way ahead. Semi weighted, works with the iPad.
Leech or flatworm? Ants and Swiss Chard
For the 2nd time in a week or so, (1st time regarding dwarf beans ), I'm following Alys Fowler's advice, this time with regard to Swiss chard . Long story short, after midsummer plants which often bolt if planted in spring will resist the impulse to do so, probably because of shortening days; (I say shortening, but in Glasgow, in July, we're still getting 18 hours of daylight). I got a packet of Bright Lights , at a good price, (another reason to wait until July before sowing, lots of bargains, I've noticed). But where to sow them? Most of the 2nd bed is under a tarpaulin, but it wasn't quite big enough to cover the whole bed, so the last 5ft or so went under a sheet of plastic, (in the background of the photo in this post, here .) Transparent plastic was a foolish idea, weeds were growing underneath it, so I covered most of it with sheets of metal from the old shed. I decided to leave the tarp, but use the area beneath the plastic for the chard. Who-ah there...
I to have been playing around with the old ivories. This looks good. I have a Line 6 mobile 49 but it has no docking space. What teaching apps are you using?
ReplyDeleteI've had a quick look for apps, but can't find anything that jumps out at me. Couple of years ago, when I was trying to do this with a PC, I gave up on the Piano Lesson software I had - it began to feel very clumsy and clunky. I think if I just get something that's going to work with the midi keyboard, that should be enough. And use proper paper music. I'll let you know how it goes.
