Hi! Playing a walking bass on bass melodica is like playing on a tuba: part of the time quarter with pauses, part of the time continuous quarters.Another problem is the sound production, the acoustic properties of the instrument. This is not only a delay in sound, but also a characteristic attack, which combines nice vertical with chords of another melodica , but because of attack doesn’t allow the creation of horizontal line of walking, full of drive – similarly to tuba.
