A: Is Music an appropriate place for questions about digital music collaboration? Speaking personally (i.e. don't ascribe more authority just 'cause I'm staff), I think such questions should be welcome. They're about making music; I don't see anything in the community's scope that limits this to music made on physical instruments. (more) |

(How) does bow shape affect playing the bowed psaltery? Years ago I acquired a bowed psaltery, with a bow shaped something like this: curved bow Every psaltery bow I've seen "in person" has this arched shape. Bows for other instruments (like violins) have a flatter shape, like this: flat, not curved, bow I need to replace my bow, and I'm seei... (more) |

A: Can we have a separate category for identification requests? "Different guidelines" is one of the motivating use cases for categories. (See Rigorous Science on Scientific Speculation, for example, or Challenges on several communities.) It sounds like this is a case of that and a category would make sense.
