Some nice microphones live with Tony Bennet, K.D. Lang, Amy Winehouse

 At your risk.












Blue Velvet

 At your risk.


Today in Athens there is a kind a heat wave. About one hour ago while walking towards the National Library this song was being played at the outdoors cafe. 



While listening on my way I thought it can be heard how good singers build the note sung by increasing the pitch by glissando after attack until it sounds correct to the listener's mind.


The song was inspired by a woman wearing a blue velvet dress at a party watched  by songwriter Bernie Wayne.

Joe Dassin

 



This was recommended to me by my friend Albert, the master tuner.


A few days ago he had tuned the piano for Nick Cave's concert in Athens.




A Pleiades derivative of the great Musical Fidelity A1 class A amplifier

 At your risk.


How would it sound if only the last 2 transistors are used with an output transformer say 2:1 and no negative feedback?


For example single ended with BD135 driving the 2N3055,  and Vb=24V.
