DIGDUGDIY latest

Post by niftyprose »

I managed to totally miss the latest communhication from the excellent DIGDUGDIY.

I notice that, besides the now-familiar Purple Rain and others, it offers some new-to-me issues like the Moonman and Telecom. Both seem very interesting but the demos are presumably out there in some opaque hipsterspace.

Can anyone hitch me up with YouTube or similar videos?

Best, NP

Sure, he put some on his YouTube channel this time, "Burnt Reynolds" -- https://www.youtube.com/c/docshermsticks/videos
These demos were linked in Etsy in the items' descriptions, while they were still up!

I have a lot of tapes from his store. Some of them are stone cold classics of weird beat shenanigans.

I have a Purple Rain in the closet and a Scales which I use daily to play an eMu Proteus 2OOO. In short, I am "pro" DIGDUGDIY.

I've seen this stuff and it's really piqued my curiosity...so it's about taking your pocket operator/volca game to the next level? Any of the stuff take 1/4"?

1. Seance: Thanks, I found those videos already (thx Never) but I imagine others here will be pleased to see them. If you turn up a video for the Telecom lo-fi looper I'd love to see it.

2. CosmicEvan: DIGDUGDIY has done lots of 1/4" stuff. It's hard to provide a definitive listing because he tends to produce a batch and sell it quickly on Instagram. (That's a problem for those of us who don't enjoy a cellphone signal, if you're listening, Mr Arch Aeologist.) I've kept up by checking his Instagram channel in a browser then Googling "DIGDUGDIY CYBERPATOOTIE*" or whatever for old traces on Etsy or elsewhere, and I reckon there have been 20 or 30 releases, not all of which have become cults.

I can't find a Telecom video. but there's one going relatively cheap on Reverb (https://reverb.com/uk/item/36120185-dig ... lecom-2020). Not my thing, as I want 1/4" and a case. But doubtless some ILFer will love it. Best, NP

* Actually, I made that one up.

FYI, I asked him about the jacks, since they're labeled TRS (1/8") on those chipboard Moonman, Purple Rain, Etc -- They will sum stereo to mono. So you could use a TRS 1/8" to 2x TS 1/4" insert cable, stick in two signals or both L/R from a drum machine or whatever.
