Musicaid (Simmons) Analog Clap Trap synthesizer

"Here is a very rare Musicaid (Dave Simmons worked here before founding Simmons Electronics) original model Analog Clap Trap in excellent condition.
Manufactured in St. Albans UK.
There's a little blemish on the right side of the case - pictured.
The balance slider is a bit noisy and so might need to be spray-cleaned.
A piece of electronic drum/synthesizer history.
From Bob Henrit's Complete Simmons Drum book...
'While all this was happening around the beginning of the decade, another Simmons (Musicaid) product was proving to be very successful around the world. This was the ubiquitous analog 'Claptrap.' At one time it was impossible to turn on the radio without hearing its 'noise.' It was made because Dave Simmons spotted a gap in the market. He noticed that 'disco' records invariably had hand claps behind the snare drum off-beat to bolster and sharpen the sound. All that they needed to do was design a simple circuit that would sound like a recording of hand claps. That original, analog, and to some minds the best Claptrap, was a very successful Simmons product. It certainly enjoyed three or four year of success without actually being 'ripped off' as a free-standing unit. Its sounds, though, were frequently 'borrowed' by many drum machine manufacturers.'"

Touch Board Arduino Based Touch Interface on Kickstarter
Touch Board Boombox from Bare Conductive on Vimeo.
"If you're wondering how this cool creation came into existence, it all started with good friend Jude Pullen, whose skills in design modelling were a perfect match for the brand new Touch Board (now on Kickstarter!) . We were lucky enough to have Jude come into the Bare studio to make one of the most impressive demos featured in our Kickstarter video. The results were…. boom-bastic! We were so impressed that we even decided to give you a chance to nab a mini version for yourself!"
Touch Board + MIDI from Bare Conductive on Vimeo.
"More information about how to use the Touch Board as a MIDI interface and stand alone instrument."
"We've worked hard to pack the Touch Board with awesome features:
Touch sensing - The world is your interface!
Distance sensing - You don't need to touch your sensors to use them!
No programming required - Unless you want to!
Arduino-compatible - Easy to program and works with popular shields
Works great with Electric Paint - Or any other conductive material
MP3 Player / MIDI device - Make a symphony of sounds!
MicroSD card socket - Change the sounds just by changing the card
Standard 3.5mm audio jack - Works with headphones and speakers
Lithium Polymer (LiPo) - Stand alone projects that recharge via USB
HID capable - Turn the Touch Board into a keyboard or mouse"

EML POLY-BOX Live
Just thought this was a cool shot from Jon Sonnenberg's Travelogue.
"While I am on live images, I thought I would post this photo of a live performance I did for a Fall Autobahn Festival that happened several years ago in Cincinnati."
You don't see the POLY-BOX that often, let alone used lived on stage.
