Looks fantastic Ed. Hope you sell shed-loads!!

Thanks Steve, that cover is stuning! Thanks so much!!!

It was a fun cover to do Ed! (and I learnt a bit about 3d modeling in the process!)

ooooooo good!

so how do i go about ordering/DLing this? i don't have any kind of fancy tech toys. just the pc...so i'm guessing i should click, "PDF (good for reading on PC, or for home printing)" ?? you'll be my first e-book purchase haha. i want to be sure that's the right one, for me to click on.

you should do audio clips too, like exercises and how to dos etc. theres' that sound you make, and i like it allot and am not sure how to do it. it sounds like womp womp. i want to combine it with my dingo barks : ))

I don't recommend the PDF version, but I think you can use any of the formats. Epub would be excellent and you can download a free reader from adobe to read it on your PC. The PDF is probably ok, I haven't tried it. The epub version is very much cooler. I do have both an audio disk and a download version...not of the book but has the five lessons. They can be found from the link http://www.rdrop.com/~mulara/learn.html . Downloads are from bandcamp and include a pdf short version of the book. CD welll, the CD lol.
I'm pretty sure the sound you're describing comes from rapidly squeezing the cheeks together.

okay, thanks! i still have a few things to learn. i can do the breathing, but when i try it on the didgeridoo...i can't do it. maybe it's because it's more air being pushed out, then when i do without.

do you still sell the cd's? i can write a check and mail it to you...but i prob won't be able to, till next month. i'll be on vacation from the 2nd or 3rd, till i think the 17th. but i'd be interested to have one. i saw they had some on laoutback too.

By can do the breathing , I'm assuming you mean threw a straw into a glass of water? Yeah, keep doing it. The problem is to keep you lips buzzing and that will take some mileage to happen 'cause you need to build up the muscles in your cheeks and around your mouth. Give it a few days of doing what your doing. I'll bet in a few days you'll have it nailed. Sure, you can mail me a check and I'll send you a CD and booklet. pm me if you need an addy.

Ed

yeah that's the problem i am having...except i do it without the water. the water works better? how do i do it? do i leave the straw or pinch the submerged end?

i can maybe try to get a check out tomorrow, if the finances are in order. i'll have to review that. PM me where to send to and how much $, and i'll let you know if i get it out(so you can be on the look out).

thanks!!

Fill the glass about 1/3rd of the way with water, put the far end of the straw under the water, if you like it might help to pinch the straw's top half between your thumb and one of your figures just a bit to simulate back pressure.

Here's a better offer, if you can swing it. Buy the PDF download from smashword, maybe give it a kind word and a some friendly stars and pm me your postal address. I'll send you everything via snail mail and we'll call it even. Sound do-able? Same deal for anyone here, though you can choose between the how to play CD and my Beneath the Surface music CD.

Ed

okay...i have a new respect for the breathing. it is not easy, at all! i'm keeping at it, though. telling my nose to inhale while focusing on blowing out, is difficult. i'll try the straw and water. i want to keep going, and can't keep it up. i would have no problem paying full price for the cd and booklet. i'm going to let you know when i am back from my trip. so much going on and the days are melting away it seems...i'll bring my bamboo with me and see how it sounds on the boat.

Tip, for you. If you are having trouble squeezing your cheeks and breathing in through you nose at the same time try these two exercises. First puff out your cheeks and use your hands to squeeze the cheeks togther while at the same time breathing in through the nose. Second, standing over a sink, put some water in your mouth and squirt the water out into the stream in a narrow stream while breathing in through the nose at the same time.

Actually, Jennifer, I would help me more if you bought the PDF version for your computer and I will send you a disc and a print copy as I'm trying to promote the ebook right now and any sale of it will help.
