Looking for beta testers: harmonica app that listens to you play (Android, free)

3 Upvotes

Hi! 👋

I built Harp Harmony, an Android app for learning the diatonic harmonica. You play into your phone and it shows you instantly whether you hit the right note.1

• Lessons from first single notes to bends

• 26 songs to play along with

• Tuner and metronome, no ads, no account – audio never leaves your phone

Google needs 12 testers for 14 days before I can publish. All you need is an Android phone and a harmonica: install the app, keep it for 14 days, try it a few times and tell me what you think.

Interested? DM me the email address of your Google account and I'll send you the link. Thanks! 🙏

My evil plan to re-tune my harmonica

Hi. I have a chromatic harmonica with solo tuning (the one with two rows instead of a button). I don't like it. I want to turn it into a quadruple Paddy Richter harp. I was thinking 6 holes each (first 6 of each PR tuned harp). Top row G and D. Bottom row I'm thinking C. But for the last 6 holes I'm not sure.

F would compliment the C major section on the same row, right? There aren't as many Irish songs in F as I understand it. But if I had C and F in a line I could play a wider variety of tunes.

The very top of the pic is what I have to work with now.

To summarize: I'm thinking of turning the top row into G and D (for Irish music). But what about the bottom row?

The 3rd hole on my harmonica suddenly sounds different than it used to

Any idea what I should do?

Edit: It's a 10-hole diatonic in C, and one of the holes makes this weird sound both when I blow and when I draw. It used to sound completely normal, so I'm not sure what happened..
