The Spacebox - Another Kyle Weiss Noisemaker


YouTube via KillKyleWeiss | April 08, 2010 |

"Add a Pro-Rythm D2 drum synth thing, an old 1940's tube test box, a Dauz pad and a cheap First Act delay pedal (plus some tweaking)... and you have: Der Spacebox. Not pretty, like most of my crap, and not exactly original, I just wanted a space-drum clone but with more features in a not-so-tidy package. Rustic improvements include real apple branches as build tiers, clothespins to keep wires from getting yanked too far from the holes in the box, and frustrated cursing because the "engineering," of this thing renders it moody at the slightest touch-- yet you're supposed to bang on it. Dauz pad is not actually hooked up, it's just a place to beat the box to trigger the internal contact (compression?) microphone. Though the Dauz pad would happily hook up to something else to play in tandem. I am not a drummer. I just wanted noise. Take that, Internet."
