You're welcome. Hope it works ^^"


A trick eh?

Lets see? Besides Practicing, I found this very useful site that showed breathing practices specifically used for the Didgeridoo.
This is it here: http://www.didgeridoostore.com/didgeridoo_circularbreathing.htm


But you do know that you don't have to learn circular breathing to play a didgeridoo, right?

Thanks for the link, and yeah, I know you don't have to, but it would let me drone for more than a minute at a time. Stupid autonomic breathing...

User, good to see you around again.
 
Actually, if you want to be able to play longer there are better ways than circular breathing. As a trombone player, breathing is a BIG part of what I do, and I've had my fair share of problems. My private teachers focused a lot on breathing during our lessons, and it helped me an incredible amount. Here's some of what they taught me...

First of all, you need to make sure you're breathing the correct way. Try to think of taking in air as filling up a glass of water. When you fill up your glass you pour the water into the bottom and fill it towards the top. Breathing correctly is the same kind of concept. Often when we intake air it will get stuck in out chest, or even worse our throat. When we breathe we want to make sure that the air goes all the way down into our midsection, then fill up from there. Remember, it's just like filling up a glass with water.

There's a certain sound or syllable we want to make when breathing too. Avoid syllable's like "Ah" or "Eh." Shard sounds like that will shorten your breath and get it trapped in your throat and chest. The sound we want to aim for is more of an "Oh" sound. One of my teachers described it as a backwards "Santa Ho." It's also the same kind of syllable we tend to make when yawning.

Posture is also extremely important when thinking about breathing. You have to sit up straight in a relaxed position. Any tension in your body will restrict your ability to breath. Also, try to keep your back from resting against anything. Believe it or not, sitting with your back against a chair or whatever will restrict your breathing. Try standing up and taking in a few deep breaths with a hand on your stomach and the other on your lower back. It won't be completely obvious, but you should feel both your stomach and your back expanding as you breath in. Another clear sign that you're not breathing optimally is when your shoulders rise as you breath in. This almost certainly means your air is getting trapped in your chest and throat.

If you want to improve your breathing, the best thing you can do is go to your local home improvement store and buy a small piece of 1" PVC pipe. Place that in your mouth and breath through it a few times. You'll be amazed. There are also special breathing pipes and mechanisms you can get through music stores, but the PVC pipe works just fine and is ridiculously inexpensive (you can get 10 for $1 if I remember correctly).

There are also exercises that you can use to improve your breathing. You can find a bunch online. Just google "breathing exercises didgeridoo" or even "breathing exercises trombone." One I like is Doug Yeo's Breath Control Article.

Hope this helps!

Wow. Very thorough.
Thank you, master, I shall learn well of your teachings.

Yes, but the book of Law states that you shouldn't judge a person by their first post. Out loud.

Not judging... just simply stating that it's like a time warp. It's weird, unique and odd.
It makes me wonder: " If all the posts on the nerd thread, why May's? And why that specific one at that?"

I find it somewhat fasinating.

User!!!!:heart::heart: WB!!!


Tromby- that was well.. err O_O"

Oh man...

So as CT's getting ready for work, he has begged me to post this little tidbit up:



Chronicle_Tenko has outgrown his dresspants from the 9th grade!

He is extremely excited about this and wanted to share with you all.
He has also said: " It has taken 11 years to gain this much weight!" ** Note- he's still slim**




That is all.


@_@
 
Dude, they re-released the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures! :eek: I got Raphael today and I'm getting the other three tomorrow. Also got a new Microphone for the computer and I'm hoping that will solve the audio issues I've been having while recording. All in all it was a good day. :D
 
BTW...

Do any of you have any experience recording screen capture videos on PC for the intent of uploading them to YouTube? I'm having...issues.

First of all, I'm doing this so I can post some Video Game Walkthroughs on YouTube, so I'm using an emulator.

I have my recording software ready to go (I'm using CamStudio), but I'm not sure what setting I should use.

I finally fixed the issues with my audio by buying an external microphone, so that's no longer an issue...

However, when I start to record, the emulator lags quite a bit. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

I'm no neckbeard, but it simply sounds like you need more RAM.
