re the HowIDidIt: Cinematique Instruments have a Bass Harmonica and it’s not too expensive but quite good - not whiny at all. don’t worry about the approx. USD price that’s quoted - it’s based on a fantasy conversion rate

I will check that out, thanks. Cool resource site and I speak pidgin Euro already. Routing the F harp through Guitar Rig was fun enough to merit some practice. I’ll see whether the old Mac can handle it as a plug-in with Reaper, which is nicely lighter on the CPU than DP. Thanks for that tip, too, BTW.

Thanks for encouraging. I’m working on some harp tracks to add, but am a bit out of practice, and it’s always hard to match a “room” sound. We’ll soon see whether I can pull it off.
