[Harp-L] Bending on a Diatonic Harmonica Using a Pitch Pipe to Test Accuracy

[Michael Peloquin]

The return of Barbecue Bob!
Bob, here is how I do it: set the metronome to 1/2 of your desired BPM, then count in: 4—, 2—, 1, 2, 3, 4. It takes a bit to get used to, but then the metronome swings.
Kinda of like snapping your fingers on 2 & 4.

Hi,
Thanks for the tip on the Total Energy app!!! I just took a peek at it,
Really cool!! I did ask them a question about the metronome section if it
had the ability to switch from clicking on all beats to just the 2 and the
4, which a drummer told me how he was able to learn how to play behind the
beat, which is a necessity to learn how to play blues properly.
