So I can hit most of the notes but not all and generally less familiar with Chromatic. I have a C Chromatic, are you using a D, or some other key? Thanks in advance for your response. Very lovely piece.

Oh cool I didn’t know alan tudyk played the harp. Groovy.

Thank you for your sharing.

Nice piece, thank you😃❤

Merry Christmas Ross, to you and yours 🎶🙏🎄

Interesting

Really Nice

i missed you man... good to see you... love from turkey...<3

Thanks for the video! I just received one today in A. To be honest I bought it on impulse but I really like it so far. I’m a blues/rock player and really hear lots of possibilities with this one as my overblows are not musical yet, so certain scales and licks will now be available. It is easy to play and sounds great. I look forward to picking up some more tips :) Subbed.

Nice work

Beautifully played Chromatic. Your twin brother's not bad on the alto too.

Stellar❤🎉

Cool. Kudos to "both" of you!

Awesome man!

Very nice vid! Both sound great but I think the little inflections you get on the chromatic make it sound more soulful.

Interesting harmonica. I like that it has no valves. My favorite harmonica to date is the Penta by hohner. I heard it this morning. I was blown away! A girl was playing it in a very hickey tonk blues manner. I grew up with the C hohner The Super chromatic belonging to my dad. It had a Crack in the spine of it and the valves all curled up or missing. I tryed to repair it but just played it as best I could. I m a rank amatuer player anyway so I got tired of the chromonica and put it up for a few years. I heard some guy play a diatonic in A and liked it. I also heard another fellow play in F flat which I liked very much. I am currently soaking an old rusted hohner echo in vinegar and baking soda to sweeten the comb. This old echo has the Bavarian twang of a German beer garden. It is a very musical little harp but has cover plate securing issues. My interest in harmonica waxes and wanes so I don't know if I will stick with it or not. I'm not real wild about chromonicas in C either. When it was.new it probably sounded better. In about 1931 is when I figure my dad was.given the chromonica in C. Thank you for Playing the Trophies in A. I'm not sure I'm real wild about it. I think a lot depends on oburchure and oral cavity. I play E flat alto and also b flat clarinet and so much depends on omburchure. I still like hohners pocket pal and penta. Their blues harps are also good. I just wish I could tune the darn things. Thanks for auditioning the Throchius Chromonica I'm out to lunch on that one. Thank you again, appreciated the test drivre; I was currious about Trochius brand. Most grateful.

Most people aren't nerd enough, like us, to even know Stevie is a chromatic harp virtuoso! I am guilty of trying too hard to play it in E!! Thanks!

Digging that 70's vibe at the end... sounded like a theme song Tommy Duncan would have played!

Sounds cool

Just a quick observation. If you hold the Harp in your left hand with the slide button on the left, you can with some practice by moving your thumb, push in the slide.This gives you the opportunity to cupp the harmonica all the time. The obvious problem is the low notes are now on the right. It would be interesting to play one if the slide mechanism was the opposite way round...

Been waiting for someone to publish a good explanation of what is possible with the Gamechanger! I would love to see a course!

Superb, pieces of this song seem easy. But playing it all the way through, including the improv... Just awesome bro...❤❤❤

I think with time you might find that you'll combine those two "record labels" into one really cool style of playing

you obviously don't know anything about making a video, shaking the instrument out of focius so we can't see anything clearly on it is a no-go

i have a slide harp. same thing but 10 holes. got mid 90s. C only probably. wonder if they still make 'em. no valves! regards....

Is it worth buying the harmonica you are presenting? I am aware that this harmonica comes in three varieties. Can you tell me which one is most suitable for someone who plays popular music the most? I kindly ask for information on this matter.

Good video, Ross. Winslow Yerxa has some detailed comments on the tuning of these harps on his RUclips channel, and they are very helpful in exploring the capabilities of this harp. I have a "pop tuned" version in G, which I got primarily for playing Irish tunes, and am finding it to be a more broadly useful paddy richter-type of tuning. Great for Irish tunes, but also good for other types of music.

How about the yellow chromatic harp they have.?

I can play (around - noodle) in most common positions - 1-5,11,12. Do you think there is a better position to begin to get familiar with the button? After listening to this video, maybe just 1st?

Fun!

Great review, you took it out of the box and showed us how things go for someone new to this harmonica. As you say its not a new idea - but past versions had issues. Technology moves forward and it looks like its really peaked the interest of most blues players. It opens up harmonica playing to be able to reach notes previously only attainable to experts. My first harmonica was a Hohner 12 hole Marine Band - amazingly of all the harmonicas I own, its the only one that has every reed still responsive - no dead notes on it or worse, notes that make you sound like a child taking its first blow on a harmonica. Though this is 'expensive' - its a fact quality harmonicas always have cost a wee bit. This Trochilus Richter is not a bad price if you compare it to purchasing two Special 20s or similar harmonicas. The slightly bigger holes in this one should make it easier to play. The ability to alter notes/key on the fly is also a temptation. Like you say - and like the writing on the harmonica states - its a game changer. Bit by bit - all the blues players will hear about this and I'm sure many will take the plunge. I missed out on the sale but hopefully they will have another one. Thanks again for showing us what this thing can do. Great playing also. Blues music has always had a fan base in the UK and Europe - many of the greats, faced with declining demand in the USA - came to the UK and made some coin and got to experience the people here also.

Thank you for this video. Trochilus has no valves so they dont stick and makes it very durable. It has a good sound and responsiveness. You dont have to work on the reeds to get overblows beceause of the slide. Note; its not totaly chromatic, there are still some notes to bend. I bought all six keys and i am having a lot of fun playing all kinds of music styles. I can highly recommend to try one .
