Note: There is a learning curve when playing harmonica parts on a keyboard, so don’t get frustrated if it’s not sounding great right away. It’s hard to find realistic harmonica samples, but the Auditory Lab V2 does a great job. I think this is a quality sample pack that you will thoroughly enjoy. The harmonica in the intro is something that immediately hooks you in and brings you right back to when it was written. One of the pre-sets sounds just like the intro to “Take The Long Way Home.” This was an extremely popular song that was recently sampled into a modern hit as well. I think that the sounds are very convincing once you dial them in. It allows you to create chords and notes that are mildly off pitch that make for an organic soundscape. These can be played with a MIDI keyboard and one feature I really like is the mod-wheel. Under the pictures you are given some effect and volume controls. The interface is extremely easy to navigate as a picture of each harmonica is shown. ![]() Each of these are given their own controls and volumes as well. The Auditory Lab Harmonica V2 samples feature three different types of harmonicas: the diatonic, chromatic, and tremolo. It’s not super intensive on your PC or laptop and you shouldn’t find it slowing you down too much. I highly recommend checking out this plugin if you have a decent computer or laptop setup. You can use this plugin in any key with a click of a button making it very versatile for different styles of music. I’ve generally really enjoyed Sonivox and their plugins. The sound department is overall pretty great for the price point. I highly recommend reading the guide above if you’re into production, Sounds Sonivox also makes one of my favorite electric guitar plugins as well. I’ve found that layering this plugin with other VSTs can sound extremely nice and create a warm and inviting tone for certain styles of music. It is very simply laid out plugin that sounds crisp and realistic. The SoniVox harmonica VST was the first harmonica plugins I tried out. ![]() Best Harmonica VSTs And Samples Sonivox Harmonica Plugin The game is changing and some of the samples sound extremely close to real and also give you more to work with. If you’re not a fan of using VST’s for organic sounds, I definitely think you should give them a try. ![]() To me, this is a great feeling and a reason why I like to use harmonicas in current songs. I think the nostalgia comes from the fact that when you hear some of those classic songs, you instantly recognize the harmonica as it brings you back in time. Neil Young, Billy Joel, and Supertramp are a few bands that ring a bell. When I think of harmonicas, I instantly think of classic songs from my childhood. If I can play a part I like on my keyboard and change the instrument, then it’s perfect for me. Finding plug-ins that sound good when played on keyboards is always my main goal. What I look for is something that sounds good when I play it on a keyboard. The best samples are going to be samples that sound realistic and still give you all of the dynamics as if you were playing a real harmonica.

Scripture likens their relationship to that of Christ and the Church. Two truths, which appear repeatedly in these passages, are the headship of the husband and the submission of the wife. Through Paul and Peter, God gives us clear instructions regarding the spheres of responsibility and authority within the family (Eph 5:22-6:4 Col 3:18-21 1 Tim 5:14 Tit 2:4-5 1 Pet 3:1-7). The more closely we understand God’s design for the family, the better we will be able to recognize when Satan tries to change and undermine it. The United States has the weakest families in the Western world because we have the highest divorce rate and the highest rate of solo parenting.” God, in His wisdom, knew that children needed the stability of married parents. In an annual report, 2 David Popenoe, a Rutgers sociology professor and report co-author speaks of the increase of cohabitation, “I don’t think it’s good news, especially for children … As society shifts from marriage to cohabitation - which is what’s happening - you have an increase in family instability. However, even when a father is present, if the parents are not married, it is still detrimental to the children. According to a recent survey, 1 85% of all children that exhibit behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes. If Satan can successfully destroy the marriage, this will have a devastating impact upon the rest of the family. Good marriages are the foundation of solid families. ![]() Satan’s Attack on the Internal Mechanics of the Family Unit With the increasing rate of divorce, the acceptance of common-law relationships, the barrage of Hollywood immorality, and the legalization of same gender marriages, we can see how successful Satan has been in twisting and perverting God’s best for us and depriving us of the blessings that marriage brings to the family. In listening to Satan and disobeying God, Eve and Adam plunged themselves, and all subsequent families, into slavery in the “kingdom of darkness.” Satan’s attack on the family has continued until today. Satan’s initial attack on the family occurred in Eden where the old serpent worked his evil deception on Eve and destroyed the harmony of the first marriage. For the benefit of future generations, God explained, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.” God requires from the married couple a level of separation from others and a commitment to each other which will provide a stable foundation for the family unit. When God finished creating the first couple, He called what He had made “very good.” This man and woman were united in a holy bond before God. ![]() Satan’s Attack on the Institution of Marriage, the Foundation of the Family If Satan can be successful in tearing down the structure and substance of the family unit, then he will be successful in damaging what is dear to God’s heart. Satan knows the value of the family, how it is the fabric of a good solid society, the foundation of vibrant growing assemblies, and the future of God’s work on earth. God designed both marriage and the family for our benefit. Satan knows that God created marriage as a beautiful, living picture of Christ and the Church. This evil one seeks to turn people from what God has designed for their ultimate blessing and good. He is the “prince of the power of the air” who is “at work” around us. Paul calls him the “god of this world who has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ” (2 Cor 4:4). John’s gospel is where we learn that the devil “was a murderer from the beginning and has nothing to do with the truth because there is no truth in him … he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44). In Revelation, John refers to him as “the old serpent,” who “deceives the whole world” (Rev 12:9). Peter describes the devil as our adversary who “prowls around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour” (1 Pet 5:8 NIV). Many Biblical writers describe the evil character of the one who seeks to destroy what God loves. ![]() We need the armor of God to be able to “stand firm” against the “schemes of the devil” (Eph 6:10-18). God’s Word makes it clear that we are engaged in warfare against Satan. ![]() Sure, kids can always use a white bucket or crayon to better adjust the coloring, but an eraser would have felt more natural, and therefore seems like a missing feature.

In 1778, Tallmadge was appointed director of military intelligence by George Washington, with the objective of securing information on the British in New York City. Tallmadge was present at major engagements, including the Battle of Brandywine and the Battle of Germantown. His older brother William Tallmadge was taken prisoner at this battle and according to Tallmadge’s memoir, “literally starved to death in one of prisons.” 2 By December 1776, Benjamin Tallmadge had been appointed a captain in Colonel Elisha Sheldon’s prestigious 2d Regiment of Light Dragoons, and subsequently rose to the rank of major in April 1777. He first saw action in the Battle of Long Island in August 1776, which ended in a British victory. When the position of lieutenant in one of Connecticut’s six-month regiments of the Continental Army was offered to him by a Captain Chester of Wethersfield in 1776, Tallmadge readily accepted. After completing his studies in 1773, Tallmadge took up a teaching post at a school in Wethersfield, Connecticut.Īfter the Battles of Lexington and Concord and Bunker Hill, Tallmadge began to think seriously about joining the army in support of American independence. While a student there, Tallmadge developed a close personal friendship with Nathan Hale, who would also eventually become involved in American espionage, though with a far more tragic end. Benjamin Tallmadge was well-educated in the classics by his father, and recounts in his memoir that, “President Dagget, on a visit to father, examined and admitted as qualified to enter college, when was twelve or thirteen years old.” 1 Though qualified, Tallmadge’s father did not choose to send him to Yale until 1769.
