Damon, I enjoyed hearing that music you created and watching your fishing video where you put the two together. Nice work.

The first instance of the dulcimer comes in at 9:38.

Thanks, these modular synths go all the way back to the atomic bomb experiments. After the war someone had the bright idea to turn all those oscillators and such into musical instruments. Therefore, modular synthesizers developed at about the same time as the revival/contemporary mountain dulcimer, circa 1940s for so.

Yeah, the dulcimer comes in much later. It's all meant to be integrated so that you can't really tell what instrument is playing.

Wow,I couldn't hear the dulcimer so much-the synth part was great,tickled my ears.I'm the rowboat generation (yeah,pretty old) ...enjoyed that.

I recorded this about a week ago. It's an original composition of mine where I experiment with using acoustic instruments for control a modular synthesizer. I also use these tracks in my fishing videos on YouTube:

Complete track: Music for Kalimba, Dulcimer and Modular Synthesizer

Here how the music is used in my fishing videos:
