Re: [Harp-L] Drum/bass machines

This is not a machine, this is a variation of the a floor mike picking up the foot tapping on a three-quarter inch plywood board. You must provide your own foot power and plug it into an amp. 


Try this. I own the larger, original model that allows two-foot operation.

 Here is the blurb from site: 


"In response to Performing Artists' request for a more compact/portable version of the already popular Original PorchBoard Bass (suitable for one or more feet rythms) we introduced the PorchBoard Micro Floor Bass! At 8" wide and less than 3 pounds light, it has the same design, features and BIG sound as our larger PorchBoard Bass but easily fits in a gig bag, suitecase or backpack for your next gig! The PorchBoard Mirco Floor Bassis perfect for one foot rythms fore both standing and sitting performers."

Subject: [Harp-L] Drum/bass machines


Anyone got any suggestions for drum/bass machines?  I've gotten a Zoom
RT223, and I like the sound, but..

 

I've been spoiled by my Digitech's (It's Richards fault!!!) ability to hook
up to my computer and be tweaked.  I don't really use it often with the
Digitech's, but I would like a drum and bass machine that is that easy to
program.  It's taking too much of my precious spare time to learn how to
program this thing.  I'm sure some of us have opinions..
