On the last Tuesday of May, I took the Fingertip of the right index finger
detached. After 14 days, the touches were all around the fingertip,
again without stabbing pain.
However, whether I will ever again be painless in the strings, or in the
Keyboard keys can grab, will show up with time!

AKTUELL UND WICHTIG
On Monday, July 22, 2024, John Mayall, my penultimate musical idol,
passed away at the age of 90. Dave Brubeck, Klaus Doldinger, John
Mayall and Frank Zappa - in that order - shaped my musical taste. John
is my third music idol to pass away. Thank you too, John, for shaping my
music with your three colleagues. How could I ever forget you...

ON OUR OWN BEHALF
To make the contents of the MukerBude accessible even faster,
the entire MukerBude will be cleaned up by the end of 2024.
- All links are checked for consistency and updated if necessary.
- All JPG, PNG images and PDF text files are compressed to a maximum.
- All HTML files are optimized in their programming.
This project can be described as follows:
Imagine you want to repaint your house. Outside, inside and
everything that is in it, with the brush and the paint for fingernails.
All ongoing projects will continue as before.
Please forgive us if there is a delay somewhere.
:
First visible corrections of the clean-up work at the MukerBude:
The section of the MukerBude "GUITARS",
splits into three separate divisions:

YOU ASKED US/ME:
Two music stations are among my absolute favorites.
RADIO SWISS JAZZ 24/7 - SRG SSR - MUSIC. PURE.
and of course my absolute favorite station.
Smooth_Jazz.COM GLOBAL
If you don't know the style. As the name suggests, it is
smoothed-out jazz harmonies without distorting them, with a
Dash of soul and a touch of ambient... (my definition)
Die-hard jazz musicians also refer to smooth jazz as jazz pop.
I can live well with that. Just like
Klaus Doldinger,
whose music has been described as jazz commercialism for decades.
Someone called SmoothJazz department store music, which I called
high praise. If music is able to create a buying mood,
first and foremost, it creates a good mood !
:
We at MukerBude, especially myself, deal with almost
all the musical styles of the planet. We probably have a
much wider range of music than all radio music presenters.
That's why we don't like all channels that only serve one genre
they quickly get on your nerves.
A pleasant exception is the broadcast in the evening program,
die Greatest hits of all time on BREMEN 1
Because the music is chosen by the listeners, it covers a wide spectrum.

KEYBOARDS and E-PIANOS
After the extensive keyboard research in 22/23,
we are currently playing two master keyboards in the MukerBude.
M-AUDIO 61 MK3
With 61 precise semi-weighted keys, for a nylon guitarist
like me, just the right board! Of course I play the KAWAI
GS-60 Estate Grand LE by Production Voice.
Of course, this board is also available with 88 keys.
PartyKnowledge:
In classical music, there are only three composers who perform piano pieces
for more than 61 keys !
:
M-AUDIO Hammer 88
For our pianist, whose seemingly outdated electric piano after 16 years
has started to refuse to work some buttons.
Verdict of the repair expert: "Total economic loss."
"After 16 years of playing by a trained pianist,
is an upper-class digital piano supposed to have been played too scrap ?"
Whoever believes it ... also knows Santa Claus.
Instead of a repair that brought the once high-quality electric piano up to the standard in terms of sound.
of the noughties, we have decided, for much less money,
than the cost of repairing a MIDI keyboard with the sound variety of all piano samples
of the world.
Now the collage plays an M-Audio Hammer 88, with which all of us - especially him -
preferred sound of the KAWAI GS-60 sample from Producion Voice.
His verdict, after two months of playing the M-Audio:
"Plays quite well and sounds really decent :-)"
:
At the beginning of 2024, a KAWAI ES 120 arrived. Unfortunately, my
modest piano knowledge is not a benchmark for judging fully weighted
keys - they are too heavy for me - but the sound can be heard!
Of the devices I've tested, it comes down to the clearly
more expensive jingle boxes from Kork and Roland.

KAWAI ES 120
For the price of round about 600, - Euro, a recommendation - MuBu 1

ON OUR OWN BEHALF
To make the contents of the MukerBude accessible even faster,
the entire MukerBude will be cleaned up by the end of 2024.
- All links are checked for consistency and updated if necessary.
- All JPG, PNG images and PDF text files are compressed to a maximum.
- All HTML files are optimized in their programming.
This project can be described as follows:
Imagine you want to repaint your house. Outside, inside and
everything that is in it, with the brush and the paint for fingernails.
All ongoing projects will continue as before.
Please forgive us if there is a delay somewhere.

YOU ASKED US/ME:
Two music stations are among my absolute favorites.
RADIO SWISS JAZZ 24/7 - SRG SSR - MUSIC. PURE.
and of course my absolute favorite station.
Smooth_Jazz.COM GLOBAL
If you don't know the style. As the name suggests, it is smoothed-out jazz harmonies without distorting them, with a Dash of soul and a touch of ambient... (my definition)
Die-hard jazz musicians also refer to smooth jazz as jazz pop.
I can live well with that. Just like Klaus Doldinger, whose music has been described as jazz commercialism for decades.
Someone called SmoothJazz department store music, which I called high praise. If music is able to create a buying mood, first and foremost, it creates a good mood !
:
We at MukerBude, especially myself, deal with almost
all the musical styles of the planet. We probably have a
much wider range of music than all radio music presenters.
That's why we don't like all channels that only serve one genre
they quickly get on your nerves.
A pleasant exception is the broadcast in the evening program,
die Greatest hits of all time on BREMEN 1
Because the music is chosen by the listeners, it covers a wide spectrum.

KEYBOARDS and E-PIANOS
After the extensive keyboard research in 22/23,
we are currently playing two master keyboards in the MukerBude.
M-AUDIO 61 MK3
With 61 precise semi-weighted keys, for a nylon guitarist
like me, just the right board! Of course I play the KAWAI
GS-60 Estate Grand LE by Production Voice.
Of course, this board is also available with 88 keys.
PartyKnowledge:
In classical music, there are only three composers who perform piano pieces
for more than 61 keys !
:
M-AUDIO Hammer 88
For our pianist, whose seemingly outdated electric piano after 16 years
has started to refuse to work some buttons.
Verdict of the repair expert: "Total economic loss."
"After 16 years of playing by a trained pianist,
is an upper-class digital piano supposed to have been played too scrap ?"
Whoever believes it ... also knows Santa Claus.
Instead of a repair that brought the once high-quality electric piano up to the standard in terms of sound.
of the noughties, we have decided, for much less money,
than the cost of repairing a MIDI keyboard with the sound variety of all piano samples
of the world.
Now the collage plays an M-Audio Hammer 88, with which all of us - especially him -
preferred sound of the KAWAI GS-60 sample from Producion Voice.
His verdict, after two months of playing the M-Audio:
"Plays quite well and sounds really decent :-)"
:
At the beginning of 2024, a KAWAI ES 120 arrived. Unfortunately, my
modest piano knowledge is not a benchmark for judging fully weighted
keys - they are too heavy for me - but the sound can be heard!
Of the devices I've tested, it comes down to the clearly
more expensive jingle boxes from Kork and Roland.

KAWAI ES 120
For the price of round about 600, - Euro, a recommendation - MuBu 1

KEYBOARDS and E-PIANOS
After the extensive keyboard research in 22/23,
we are currently playing two master keyboards in the MukerBude.
M-AUDIO 61 MK3
With 61 precise semi-weighted keys, for a nylon guitarist
like me, just the right board! Of course I play the KAWAI
GS-60 Estate Grand LE by Production Voice.
Of course, this board is also available with 88 keys.
PartyKnowledge:
In classical music, there are only three composers who perform piano pieces
for more than 61 keys !
:
M-AUDIO Hammer 88
For our pianist, whose seemingly outdated electric piano after 16 years
has started to refuse to work some buttons.
Verdict of the repair expert: "Total economic loss."
"After 16 years of playing by a trained pianist,
is an upper-class digital piano supposed to have been played too scrap ?"
Whoever believes it ... also knows Santa Claus.
Instead of a repair that brought the once high-quality electric piano up to the standard in terms of sound.
of the noughties, we have decided, for much less money,
than the cost of repairing a MIDI keyboard with the sound variety of all piano samples
of the world.
Now the collage plays an M-Audio Hammer 88, with which all of us - especially him -
preferred sound of the KAWAI GS-60 sample from Producion Voice.
His verdict, after two months of playing the M-Audio:
"Plays quite well and sounds really decent :-)"
:
At the beginning of 2024, a KAWAI ES 120 arrived. Unfortunately, my
modest piano knowledge is not a benchmark for judging fully weighted
keys - they are too heavy for me - but the sound can be heard!
Of the devices I've tested, it comes down to the clearly
more expensive jingle boxes from Kork and Roland.

KAWAI ES 120
For the price of round about 600, - Euro, a recommendation - MuBu 1

KEYBOARDS and E-PIANOS
After the extensive keyboard research in 22/23,
we are currently playing two master keyboards in the MukerBude.
M-AUDIO 61 MK3
With 61 precise semi-weighted keys, for a nylon guitarist
like me, just the right board! Of course I play the KAWAI GS-60 Estate Grand LE by Production Voice.
Of course, this board is also available with 88 keys.
PartyKnowledge:
In classical music, there are only three composers who perform piano pieces for more than 61 keys !
:
M-AUDIO Hammer 88
For our pianist, whose seemingly outdated electric piano after 16 years has started to refuse to work some buttons.
Verdict of the repair expert: "Total economic loss."
"After 16 years of playing by a trained pianist, is an upper-class digital piano supposed to have been played too scrap ?"
Whoever believes it ... also knows Santa Claus.
Instead of a repair that brought the once high-quality electric piano up to the standard in terms of sound. of the noughties, we have decided, for much less money, than the cost of repairing a MIDI keyboard with the sound variety of all piano samples of the world.
Now the collage plays an M-Audio Hammer 88, with which all of us - especially him - preferred sound of the KAWAI GS-60 sample from Producion Voice.
His verdict, after two months of playing the M-Audio:
"Plays quite well and sounds really decent :-)"
:
At the beginning of 2024, a KAWAI ES 120 arrived. Unfortunately, my modest piano knowledge is not a benchmark for judging fully weighted keys - they are too heavy for me - but the sound can be heard!
Of the devices I've tested, it comes down to the clearly
more expensive jingle boxes from Kork and Roland.

KAWAI ES 120
