Skye: The mystery of the "Magic Microphone with Mobile Speaker" still UNSOLVED - especially for roving bands of island minstrels, including Scottish small pipers, What is this dance that James Boswell on the Isle of Skye on 2 Oct 1773 called "America"?, "The mystery of the "Magic Microphone ..." is here too at "(Scott MacLeod's (MusicalMacFlower), (YogaMacFlower), (Musical-Aphilo) - are all G+ Profiles of mine)" To "Scottish Country Dancing" and "Music" wiki subjects at WUaS (and the "Music School at WUaS" too) ...

The mystery of the "Magic Microphone with Mobile Speaker" is still unsolved - and especially for roving bands of island minstrels (hoping for a form factor of an 8 inch radiant paper star - feather weight and like a speaker's bass woofer - which we can wear on each of our chests - not sure where the D batteries would go) - I'm wondering ...

What is this dance that James Boswell on the Isle of Skye on 2 Oct 1773 called "America"? http://www.scotlandnow.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/heritage/scottish-clans-story-behind-macleod-3654716

Is it a Scottish Country Dance? ... https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/847139337422553089 ...

Carl MacDougall's clan histories are great - any relation, Lorne?

Here's an update too on "a mobile speaker with magic microphone" for the Scottish Smallpipes, CONCEPTUALLY ... (and all of this could be relevant to you fiddlers, flautists and woodwind-ers) ... wanting to be able to have a 1-2 mile walking range

- The medium or large size of these two portable speakers (if these exist - and if the sound is good)) with 4 or 8 D size batteries ...

Mini Bluetooth Speaker Portable by Ancord Small Body Loud Voice Shutter Button Selfie Features Blue


- And this DPA omni microphone 
(which as an omni would hopefully amplify my SSP drones as well)


DPA d:vote 4099V - Violin Mic w/Clip



In this group think "mobile speaker with magic microphone" email process, I welcome your further thoughts, ideas and questions especially for better (louder and good sound quality and battery efficiency) speaker ideas ... 

Thanks again for your magic Stringfire music, Annie and Patti!

Musical cheers, 
Scott

Hi All,

In an ongoing search for a "MAGIC MICROPHONE with MOBILE SPEAKER," with a range of a mile or two, and for outdoor Scottish small pipes' gigs with slight wind (e.g. in a winery in multiple locations), 

I'm curious in what ways an engineer could NETWORK together 10 or a 100 oF the large size of the following mobil speakers - for a BAND OF ROVING MINSTRELS, for example. 

And I return to - conceptually - 

- The medium or large size of these two portable speakers (which may not exist yet - and if the sound is good)) with 4 or 8 D size batteries  ...

Much of this here: 

How best to explore networking such speakers together and with DPA microphone quality? 

Do such speakers or NETWORKED speakers WITH GREAT SOUND exist in other ways, that anyone knows of?

Hi All, 

"Magic MIcrophone with Mobile Speaker" continuing ...

In terms of a mobile speaker which - "gets really loud" - here's an idea - and app called "AmpMe," available for iOS and Android

 - for networking mobile speakers, which are a collection of smartphones ...

"How to Turn a Few Phones Into a Legit Sound System"
https://www.wired.com/2015/09/turn-handful-phones-speaker-system-app/

It's still not a single amplifying mobile speaker for one musical instrument at a gig, such as what I'm looking for for my Scottish small pipes, but perhaps I'll find a way to make a single amplifying smartphone mic with speaker to become as loud as needed for a gig in a winery in multiple locations, and over a mile or two with slight wind. 

Scots' First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is speaking on Tuesday at noon at Stanford ... http://fsi.stanford.edu/events/nicola-sturgeon ... and this will be live-streamed, if any of you are interested.

Musical cheers, 
Scott

my friend Mack got a blutooth speaker that's waterproof and loud: Ultimate Ears UE roll

thanks, cool, step in the right direction ... will check it out ... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F6ALDVI and https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Bluetooth-Speaker-Waterproof-Shockproof/dp/B00YARCGHO ... curious whether its networkable for a band of roving island musicians, for example, with the AmpMe App or similar ...
