Re: Moving from Mandocello to Octave Mandolin? (chord patterns)
Yup!
The main difference from your recorder experience will be that you're going from C to G instead of from C to F. Another difference comes from dealing with a stringed instrument, rather than a wind instrument, on which you're only playing one note at a time. The bottom three courses on your OM are the same as the top three courses on your mandocello. So, you can also think of it that the mandocello patterns will yield the same notes on the OM if you shift one course lower.
