Fun with SK-5

YouTube via ISOTROPOSPHERE | February 14, 2011 |

"This is a circuit bent Casio SK-5 by Tablebeast, my first bought bent item, seven years ago now. The intro tinklings come from a Casio VZ-1 on the guitarsichord patch. I think it sounds like a Rhodes, aka John Paul Jones. Korg Koass pad looping a modular sound, reminds me of Trey from Phish loop he uses.

All other sounds from the Casio SK-5, sorry that my stupid mixer settings muddied up the wonderful low tones generated by the SK-5 in bend mode play. :-("

"Electro-Harmonix Effectology, Vol.20 "The Caribbean Steel Drum Effect."
By Bill Ruppert

Welcome to Electro-Harmonix's "Effectology" series, in which we create a remarkable collection of impossible sounds using just a regular guitar and EHX effect pedals!
No keyboards, samplers or midi pickups were used.

In this episode I show how to turn a regular guitar into a Caribbean Steel Drum.

For pedal settings for this video visit the user forum at EHX.COM"
