Members MattSkibaIsGOD Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 I want to get a Wind Organ. That would be the only thing that could pull me away from the guitar for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members OldGuitarPlayer Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 Wow...that's like way too "Star Trek" for me. It also looks like something I would be bored with in about 5 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brahmz118 Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 I could definitely use that with kids who have limited fine motor development / abilities. But I'm not sure if you can sequence an original composition from scratch, which would be important. And the price is a bit high at $600! The Sharper Image filed for bankruptcy a few months ago. Not too surprised about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Queequeg Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 I already quit the guitar over an hour ago and donated them all to the double-header Ross Perot/Ralph Nader 2008 campaign for president/VP in favor of the precursor of your new-fangled laser instrument- the genuine and the original B3 Theremin. $152. I'm a full-time volunteer and will probably be the next ambassador to Cuba after the election in November, and you all can say you knew me way back when. Here's my first public performance at a recent political rally. [YOUTUBE]3btSH5cOxlc[/YOUTUBE] and vote for Ross Perot/Ralph Nader in '08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Samilyn Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 LOL, Stack. You sure had me fooled. I saw the subject line and my reaction was "what the....?????" Wow...that's like way too "Star Trek" for me. It also looks like something I would be bored with in about 5 mins. +1 I'd have fun diddling around with it for a few days, then it'd probably wind up in a closet or on Ebay.

Members C70man Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 I have trouble just listening all the way through the vid.I never liked drum machines either.If i can't feel the music, its not real to me. Oh yeah, I don't like electric pianos either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sangemon Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 It doesn't look like anyone is actually playing anything, they're just using the lasers to trigger sequences, but who's writing the sequences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jamesp Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 All kidding aside, if I had to choose one instrument, it'd be my Martin. But if, for some reason, it had to be my laptop, that'd be completely cool too. As teh Lindley says, it's all one instrument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members daklander Posted April 11, 2008 Members Share Posted April 11, 2008 So, six bills for the unit, plus the computer to do the sequencing and a sound system so it can be heard, or, a certain mass of wood and metal configured such that it generates and projects music with only the simple plucking of strings.I'll take the wood, thank you.
