My drum machine can go straight to hell
 
I'm playing guitar with my foot on a kick as sonic accompanyment. It feels so pure. I'm playing solo next Thursday. I think I'm gonna bring the kick drum. It will be fun. I'm playing "Horse Trading Days" which is Zelienople's yearly summer reason to sell funnel cakes and french fries.

i can play guitar and play the tambourine with my foot.

I'd like to see someone turn a DDR pad into a drum trigger pad and play it while playing guitar.

Cantankerous 07.12.2007 03:00 PM

and be all jumping around and shit while playing guitar? that would be excellent.
i have a lot of experience with DDR thanks to my eight year old niece.

my girlfriend is a champion DDR player.

she can beat any mode without missing a step. even that really fast one.. max 300 or whatever (she misses a few steps on that one, but she can still get by it pretty easily). i don't know either. she's crazy.

i love drum machines. i don't like the SOUND of drum machines, but i like drum machines.

the ddr pad could be rewired as a midi trigger if one was so inclined

Give it to me!

you know, I seem to remember a few years ago hearing about a dude rewiring some rhythm game perhipheral to trigger drums... maybe the beatmania pad..

I have a synth with a built in sequencer. It is fun using the noise generator to make sort of percussive sounds then sequence them.

I'm not getting rid of my drum machine, I'm just in awe of how much fun it is playing the kick while I play guitar.

Plus I was having so much fun, I broke my kick pedal. Although in my defense, I think it was a kickpedal to a kids drumset. It says Sunlite on it. I think that is french for "utter horseshit piece of crap"

I was going to say that. Roland was THE MAN, in the least literal sense of the term.
