Re: [Harp-L] Melodica & Harmonica

[MundHarp@xxxxxxx]

I used to own a Melodica... It is a usable instrument. But for me,  
although it is a "free reed" instrument.... It seems to have WAY to many  
disadvantages....  So I gave my Melodica to a friend....
 
The harmonica gives me so many MORE options for "expression"...  That a 
Melodica simply does not.... And if you want a keyboard, use a  piano, an 
organ, or a synth....
 
But your mileage might vary!

Hello  all

Is there anyone that uses a Melodica to add to a song with a harp  solo 
already in it. (Cro or Diatonic)(2nd solo or fills). 
Question is,  does the melodica get treated like a C harmonica? If not, how?

What  about melodica amplification?

Thanks and have a great  '12.
