Dip definition

David,

Sorry, I know all these questions are keeping you busy. I have yet another one though. I'm experiencing a bit of confusing determining what a dip is.

When you describe dips for "Feelin' for the Blues" during the lesson and with Joe it seems like a dip is a regular note then bent a half step and then brought up again.

With the KeeAww articulation you suggest, most of the notes get bent slightly but don't go down quite a half step (for me at least).

Finally, when doing the first line of the 5th chorus on Temperature, you say that you should hit the 3 dip with your embouchure already in the bent position. I got the impression from this that a dip is a note that starts at a half step bend and then releases. If that makes sense.

I was wondering if you could try clear this up with brief definition of what a dip is as there seems to be quite a bit in the new song "Feelin' for the Blues" that I'm starting to work on.

Thank you,
Taylor
