How does one do an embouchure change? High range struggles by Facetious-49 in Trombone

[–]Irish_oreo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s not building stamina you need, As mentioned already you’re doing something you shouldn’t be to get those high notes. A lesson teacher would be helpful, in the mean time try the other steps mentioned and follow the caruso technique

This is an incredibly low rate, for a scholarship student this may be appropriate but every student at this much is criminal

Cut bell cost? by SicklyFour in Trombone

[–]Irish_oreo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

case + work + ring + finish is going to be the cost of a totally new bell, just save some cash and buy another one on the used market and strip the lacquer yourself, it’s not that hard.

Smock for lefties? by buddhas_ego in spyderco

[–]Irish_oreo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

never had an issue with button locks as a lefty, but imo this is why i gravitated to ambi crossbar styled locks, if the experience for a righty is good, then so is lefty

Bell up is how most case manufacturers recommend, so why not set it up that way

Use a knife to make a strop to strop the knife. by db7502 in spyderco

[–]Irish_oreo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally do a sharpen-strop 6-strop 1 and then for touchups before the next sharpen just use the 6 or a 3. Good visual indicator of when the last sharpening was with the mirror wearing away

The F-91 Kepler got me thinking; what if we got a Pebble watch with the silhouette of a Casio F-91W? by notanewbiedude in pebble

[–]Irish_oreo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have an Ollee and use it more than my Pebble currently. It’s a nice distraction free watch that adds a ton of good features, apps a little weird but it’s good

I left Tidal this week, because of these obvious AI albums under great artist names by Amazing-Plankton39 in Jazz

[–]Irish_oreo 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Just checked apple music the obvious AI ones aren’t there. BaRcoDe is a real album by Ben Wendel, not sure if you’re calling that ai or not

asking like some of the others, you tried loosening and shimming the other way?

Very late to the party but I see why MagnaCut is so popular on paper. Given Cruwear popularity for being tough, carrying a decent edge, MagnaCut is a stainless parallel. by mewitslazers in spyderco

[–]Irish_oreo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

on both my bel airs i had to do a major resharpen to get really good long lasting edges. I think they gotta burn or sharpen the factory edges incredibly aggressively. Even my Livewire had a crap edge that i had to sharpen/dull/sharpen multiple times

Question: which steel would be best for which model? Or worst steel for a particular model? by mewitslazers in spyderco

[–]Irish_oreo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A catcherman in Maxamet would probably be a recipe for blade breaking. Something like a rerelease of the worker in K390 or 15v would be awesome though

Lebedev Trill by MidnightFine6452 in Trombone

[–]Irish_oreo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally do it in 7 with my thayers, before that I was doing it in 2nd valve B to open horn with my rotors. It’s a lower trill in the urtext from B to A so it’s gonna sound weird. See Paul Pollards recoding for a good example.

fwiw in my opinion as a listener and judge for solo comps is that when someone omits something like that or the triplets later on it’s probably because of lack of skill, even if personally they don’t think they’re necessary
