Some serious low end squarewaves, let me tell You, SERIOUS low end squarewaves... too bad I can't afford one of my own right now :no: Luckily enough, I can use one every now and then.

Oh, and the Tibetan singing bowls make sick droning noises, too! :)

you should tell people to skip in to the 3:00 for the good stuff. It looks like a photo theremin or optical theremin. similar to this

I watched from start to finish and enjoyed all of it. :idk:
If you skip to 3:00 you have no idea how they got to that point.

As far as Non-Stringed instruments go I love the Moody Baby Box:

I have been jealous since first I laid eyes on that one. I always dont buy them cause I make them. but at the same time I think it would be nice to just buy something thats been tested and tweaked already. my shit tends to have too many knobs that only do something on very specific situations so they just make it more complicated and mysterious but less of a performance instrument.

Why of course, in some cases it does. That's why I considered taking an extra bass with me onstage, one without even strings. :thumb:

I have wanted for many years to do a jam with guitar feedback and Tibetan bowls; unfortunately, all yer Tibetan bowl users are impossibly mystical and full of themselves and would never consider such a thing. it'd probably fuck up their delicate crystal lattices.
