The Bendometer is
a program created by Joel
that will allow you to see when you are bending a note and how far you are
bending it.
You can install a working version
of this software for a small donation of your own choosing. Anything from
$7.00 up, depending on what you think of the product after you have tried it.
Just go to HarpSoft .com
for the installation instructions.
When you open the program on your computer it will look like
this.
Now, if you take up your computer mic and play a "2
draw" on your "C" harmonica, you will notice from the screenshot
below that you are playing the note "G". Blow notes are displayed
above the numbers and draw notes below the numbers.
Now if you bend the "2 draw" down to "F"
(a full tone), your bendometer will look like this.
If you are not bending the note fully your display will look
like this.
It's that simple!
Playing with Tabs
When you have a tab window open It will look like this
The Bendometer will display what note you are playing and which
note you are to play next.
