You've got a proper banjer beat and sound going there Dave.

I love the sound of that banjo Dave. I am eager to make one, but dont know when I will get the chance

Thanks Vinnie. I’m all over the place. Music won’t let me sit still.

thanks Poorness, Denbo. The tambourine banjo is easy to build. Give it a try. They only cost 10 to 20$. I like Slim’s plastic head. Very bright and summer humidity doesn’t bother it. Ludwigg is a good drum maker so this one’s well made. I see other Ludwig’s on eBay for big bucks. I got lucky.

I really like that slim pickins banjo Dave. It always sounds so darn good.

Thanks Uncle John. It’s hard to get the beat dead on with each dub. I tend to drag the beat and sometimes speed ahead. Makes it hard to add just right. Thanks Denbo. My strings are DGB strings from a pack of flat wounds for slidework. I’m tuned GDG which is high for the strings. Didn’t break though. :D)

Good plucking bowing, Dave.    Neat method to put it all together.

Hi Road Rash. I make my video of the lead instrument and tap my foot. I save the video and bring it to iMovie on my iPad. iMovie has a great simple little dub feature. I can do 3 dubs as well as the video’s track. It’s not hard to do. Very user friendly. I just hit record and play my dub. I’m liking doing it this way. I haven’t mastered looping yet. I love watching Vinnie do it so casually.

Excellent Dave! 

How do you get the multi-tracks AND the video?
