New studio toy - Prepare to be blown away!!!


 
:P
 
After so long working ITB, I recently realized that I didn't have to submit myself to the torture of programming percussions, or recording them via a midi controller or splicing loops. Not only is it much easier and quicker but it has the added benefit of breathing life into the song. So I thought I should start investing into inexpensive percussions, and these mark the first step.
 
No more amp sims, no more sequencing bass, and no more sequencing percussions... And oddly enough, my music starts to sound more to my liking.
 
On the other hand, I can confirm that there is such a thing has feeling sore after one too many takes of finger snapping... :/

    I've got this set (without the logos which is nicer).  I keep them in a bowl and my friend's kids just love 'em.  Shake it up!

    It really does look like an eggciting new toy for the studio and may really add some eggsotic new sounds to your mixes.

    It's wireless - transmission could be scrambled though.

    Do you think there is any danger if frying a circuit?
