Hello! As you may know, seeing as I've shared this with you before, I have a home made hurdy. It really needs a lot of fixing and adjusting. But right now I'm dealing with one major issue: The hurdy appears to be too quiet. I know this sounds weird (come on, HGs are always loud and irksome!) but it's really bugging me.
What could be the cause of this? And: How can I make it louder? Could it be the strings? I'm using guitar and violin strings, wound steel. I've heard that gut strings are louder and really fit for the HG. Is that true? Should I switch?
