folktek omnichord

[PaulFitzZaland]

The sound is a little like an electronic version of 'nails on a chalkboard'.

The copper interface is pretty though...nice craftsmanship.

[snakeweirdo]

Lets hope rush discovers these instruments and make a band out of them.

[rezen1983]

These are the real Quija boards!

[SensyProject]

If Jordan Rudess will discover this thing we are fucked.

So Elephant 6-y

[ShadKiklas]

I feel I've been put on hold, while on acid

[geboy5]

beatyfull

[elijahlucian]

pretty cool idea. but its so dissonant.... ?

[earshokstudios]

@elijahlucian no you can make real music with it:D a band -Oh Land- uses some of these omnichords and play akkords and it sounds wonderful;)

[HowNotToRap]

Why must these be so expensive? Why?

[miriyaa]

where's the flux capacitor??

[thedefog]

very cool mod

[JohnnyJohnnyJohnny]

How many semi-functional music toys really need to be circuit bent?

I mean, this shit can be done with just about anything, how much of it do we honestly need?

[DarkZekeX]

This is alot better than most bends I've seen. Its very musical sounding, and it expands the power of the instrument, rather than rendering it into an insane babbling machine.

[dwemmy]

@DarkZekeX Excellent point- and they've taken the concept of bending to an artistic level. I bet somebody like Wayne Coyne, Radiohead or Trent Reznor will be grabbing one of these soon.

[melotron]

thanks for the input grandma

[SineHacker]

I love the way you guys use and position body contacts on your instruments, it makes them look much more professional than other peoples circuit bent stuff - which can easily look butchered, not that that's necessarily a bad thing ;)

[IzzyHaveMercy]

@ Idealflaw...

It IS a song, but you are either to dumb or too deaf to hear it :)

Awesome stuff what the poeple over at Folktek come up with...

One of these days I will own one of their pieces, I swear...

IZ.

[squidfanny]

Mate, this is superb work... Best 'bent omnichord I've seen so far.

I don't normally bother to rate vids, but this one's gotta be 5 stars!

peace

[MaeShi21]

that was frickin' awsome , sounds like the mae shi!

[EBATO]

I used to make half those noises connecting to the internet.

[FrozenSilence]

roflmfao

[claussoegaard]

hahahhahahahha

[TomMinderson]

@EBATO, Yeah, I remember "playing" the Dialup-A-Tone on the ol' Modem-bone. Although with Time Warner Cable, sometimes dialup is still more reliable still.

[count3rculture]

to me.....this is pure music i can hear a barage of colours melding andco inciding with each other working as one organism but is some parts of the song they have been separated from each other Truly beutiful

[idealflaw]

play a damned song instead of taking perfectly useful instruments and making them virtually useless. I can make this same sound with a sampler and a can opener- all without permanently damaging anything. I swear, if you look at any circuit-bend video, not a SINGLE Fucking one of them features music or a song being played. such a waste..

[shaneweth]

dude. I get it, but... take it easy.

[pencildives]

@idealflaw Yo, shut up. It still serves its original purpose, it just makes more sounds now.

[mezzy1968]

WOW!!!youv'e managed to convert a nearly musical instrument into an annoying lil' noise making device....fuck the fancy, get a guitar! just fuckin with ya though..if it was sittin in front of me , i'd prolly play it for an hour or two straight!

[SynthiaSensate]

Ah i want one! Wish I had money! Cool circuit b'd omni!

[Hobbitinn]

Holy f")#(Ö!!!! I love this thing!! Usually I hate stuff like that,

but that thing is like :O :O :O :O :O :O

Can't believe my ears!!!!

Where can I find something like that? :O
