Overall, a nice drumming sound, just a bit thin due to numbers. An engaging medley that just needs a bit more engagement / oomph. Nice touch on the bass.
man - that sound. So powerful. listened to dunedin before this - which was so cool but the sound of this band just consumes and commands ATTENTION. So good. And they came in 2nd behind Frasers!!
Announcers need to know when to cut their lines short and not talk and lead the crowd in an applause while the band is marching into the circle. Once the band is at the line all talking should cease.
It was more of a display, although they were adjudicated for it. I was told that the Victoria Games is their kick off for the journey to the Worlds each year. Some darned good playing captured on my phone!
Very nice Bill. New chanter sounds good. You've really smoothed out any rough edges since our Alma days. I have 2 concerned cats sitting here that would give you a thumbs down though. lol. Anyhoo, I've been enjoying your vids.
Bill. What are you using to record this? I honestly would say your gain is spiking into the red laddie. Hot mic, hot mic... indoors in a closed confined area you can probably get away with setting your recorder at about 30%. ~Wee Jeffie
