Hohner Melodicas
Posted: Thu Mar 10, 2005 1:00 am
I was wondering if someone would be able to comment on how Hohner HM-32 and Hohner HM-36 melodicas compare sonically (other than HM-36 <BR>obviously having 4 extra keys and being of better build quality). I have never owned a melodica, so I was wondering if HM-32, being about $100 less expensive one, would be an okay solution. I would eventually use it for recordings, so if there are any issues such as excessive key noise, I would like to know about it. <BR> <BR>I was initially interested in adding an instrument - not a synth or sampled sound - like Bandoneon (smaller accordion), but after hearing some of Augustus Pablo's music, I thought that melodica could do the job. I do however, like the <BR>accordion timbre, more than harmonica, so a melodica that sounds closer to accordion would be one of my choice. <BR> <BR>Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. <BR> <BR>Thanks, <BR>Rale
