I downloaded a MP3 backup tempo mix from Bluegrass College to My Music. Opened Audacity 1.3, then File, Import, Audio and selected the mix in My Music, then Open. Hit the Play button, but no Wave Form or sound. Also tried File, Open to get the mix to appear but with same result. The Software Playthrough is checked.

Didn't work on the old version of Audacity either. We are close, I think, but something is missing.

Any ideas? Thanks!!]]> http://www.bluegrasscollege.org:8080/jforum/posts/preList/102/351.page http://www.bluegrasscollege.org:8080/jforum/posts/preList/102/351.page GMT

I love this college and really hope it doesn't go away.

I have just started out learning to play the banjo and I have been searching the internet looking for some quality instructional DVDs to buy. :roll:

Some of the free video clips on YouTube are Good, some are Bad and some are downright Ugly... And I would like to call on your experience for some advice.

Whilst many of the Free Lessons proport to be instructional very few of the video's I have watched actually explain which strings are being played and in which sequence. The best one I have seen so far is Banjo in the Hollow - Murphy Method. However the vast majority simply play the music slowly and it is not always easy to pick up what is actually happening.

I am hoping you guys can offer a word of advice on which videos to buy and which to avoid. I wish to avoid Frailing and Clawhammer and favour Earl Scruggs style..

Keep on a pickin
Tam

I have played a little banjo, FMB, Scruggs style and so on. When I heared Clinch Mountian backstep it sounded different, kind of minorisch. I downloaded the tune and saw the differens. In my eyes fhe banjo used the minor scale. Funny because the backup played in Mayor.
I made a test and played guitarr together with the band and I could play in either minor or mayor and it didn´t sound wrong. I have played backup for a irish mandoline and then I used modal chords and even those worked whith Clinch Mountain.
Is there anybody who knows enogh teory to exlaine this for me? Is it a modal fiddletune from the beginning? Are there more tunes of this kind? What´s the history?
It sounds very nice! :roll:
