Fantastic. Back in the day record companies would actually seek out artists that were pushing the envelope and not afraid to try something new. It's shameful what the music industry has morphed into today.
@TaipeiDawg Yes it seems that the mindset of record companies was closer to the artist's in those times. If I didn't know this was Eddie Harris, I might have thought it was someone today experiementing with dub.
@drumheadJ hes useing an electric sax through an echo plex stan getz did a record like this later called another world I have a casstte of this in a poyethlene case [ he had another electric sax record called plug me in clark terry had an electric trumpet record the varitone sound ] the electric sax of then used the same principle as short wave radio generating one tone to get another the heterodyne effect when you have 2 tones you get 4 the sum and differance tones of the 2 frequencys .
@spacepatrolman Actually, not to be overly pedantic, but the electric sax that Eddie Harris used was a Selmer Varitone (not an Echoplex, that's actually an echo effects unit), which he had plugged into a Maestro "Rhythm 'N' Sound" effects unit (as featured on the cover of his "Plug Me In" album), which generated the second tone from the Varitone's pickup in the mouthpiece. From the Clark Terry album you mentioned, it also seems like Selmer made a trumpet version of the Varitone as well...
@pvx yea i know but you can run the varitone [ which is really a tone splitter the heterodyne effect from short wave radio generating one frequency off another] through an echoplex tape loop
@spacepatrolman electric guitars dont work the same way they use electromagnetic coil pickups you can run that through an echoplex too the varitone is like an early synthesizer tone wave generator
yeaah
