  1. Bought this to use with a Moog Minitaur and then quite quickly ended up upgrading to an all in one synth. Barely used, still has plastic over screen and I've got the box etc. Great little midi keyboard just not needed any more. Bargain at £90 plus £5 for P&P.

  3. I love crotchets and training wheels. Knowing about these has kept me in work as a professional musician who can read music, understand theory and ‘hear’ well. It’s all part of the same thing, they can’t be separated out and certainly I’d be wary of denigrating them so readily in public!
  4. You’re right about the chromatic alterations but nothing in this sequence suggest a change of key so best to not approach it like that when you think about it because you lose sight of the bigger picture - I.E it’s just a slightly cheeky chord sequence in the key of G major. Chord iii is pretty common actually; perhaps less common is chord three as dominant chord rather than a minor chord. Chord IV going to IV minor is a very common alteration popularised by the Beatles - it’s just a more interesting way of getting back to the I chord (G in this instance). So really its ultimate just a I - IV chord sequence (very common!) with a little variation to make it a bit more interesting to the listener.
  5. Any trades in particular you’re looking for?
  6. Any trades or part ex’s?
  7. Perhaps, though not always true depending upon career direction . My job is remote and flexible allowing me, for the most part, to do most things I want to musically whilst also holding down a job. I specifically chose it because of this - so it is totally feasible Just one of many things to consider I guess.
  8. Honestly, IMO, this would be perfect. Stable job and good income that supports her to focus on the aspects of music she really loves. I suspect she’ll be happier and creatively the world will be better off too as she’ll be able to pour time and energy into what she really loves doing.
  9. Good luck to her. Having worked professionally as a freelance musician for 20 years I ‘got out’ last year and it was the best decision ever. It’s great in your 20s - your overheads are relatively low and you’re happy to be out playing / rehearsing / travelling all the time and you might make a little money. But as you go on it’s clear that there isn’t really much progression in the freelance world. Gigs generally pay pretty poorly when you break it down to an hourly rate and most work is precarious as best. Fine in your 20s but less fun in your 30s and onwards when you want to get a mortgage, settle down a bit more and have more reliability / stability in your life. I’d advise her to consider whether she might find another job that would facilitate her to do the music she loves rather than having to take on every thing she gets offered as a freelance musician and still be broke!
  10. Secondly, A live recording for an original jazz quartet:
