[ginosupernova]

I discovered! he is the voice of "fitter, happier..."

[Janosuk]

2:03, that's the 'I rock' face.

[Timeconsumer9]

Build. Me. One.

[raysocietysystem]

really cool, but i know nothing about the kaosilator, how would you use it without the guitar? just wondering so i can see the difference and improvement your invention makes. thanks.



[Actionscript47]

I think i died at 1:37.

[electronicsamples]

great stuff

[JohnnyElsewhereTV]

That's awesome as hell. Looks like it'd be fun to play on stage.

[MrCloudshoe]

Do you have any for sale right now?

[adrianna1291]

i love it!

[stachefight]

That's great man!

[stupidyogi]

haha lol! make it?! make it...MAKE IT! can't we avail them like in an underground market? hahaha! im itching to have those man! epic!

[jiggle24]

I saw John paul jones with a kaossilator in a them crooked vultures live video

[athomedc]

you sir, are a fucking genius.

[AUDREYLIGHTING]

nice idea!!

[mekanefernando]

Grab a real guitar. or buy a life.

[pivotlordOMG]

0:26 Holy crap i got fucking scared >:O

[himsaad714]

when he looks at the camera after the synth break, hes all proud of himself. lol

[PrincessWizard]

I'm just gonna stick mine to a guitar, but eventuallly I want mine hooked up like yours is. That's awesome!

[trikitiger]

I think I'd be more tempted to play it like a guitar than use it as an easier way to hit the buttons X3

[Thezuzka100]

cool:)

[chickenyogurt]

Awww, fuck yeah.

[AngelicalOrABeat]

That is fucking sick man.

[MrBarboon]

Hi. I have a question. Do you use a normal amplifier to play it?

I have a fender hot rod deluxe. Is there the possibility to destroy it, with some bass frequencies?

Thanks

[electronicballast]

what kind of music is this?

it's not really techno or house but something really good.

may i also ask, do you think the kaossilator is just a one hit wonder (use it once then never again etc.)

[japimportssuck]

@electronicballast i had one, i loved it, i sold it, i want another, which brings me here.

[electronicballast]

@japimportssuck Thanks for the reply.

BTW why did you sell it?

[japimportssuck]

@electronicballast I sold it because I lost my job, I was hanging out at a guitar store and a black DJ, was like I need that! i was like I know! So I sold it to him for 140bux. I really miss it, i created some sounds that still stick in my head to this day on it.... Waaa waaa waHHhhhWAHHhh BOOM BOOM BOOM you know:)

[tormentor07]

HOW DOES IT SOUND? lol

[Breddox01]

How much! =O

[alumblanc]

fuking awesome!

[senorjiveturkey]

First note you payed sounds just like the first note of "Forever" by drake

[th3th0mas]

how many loops can you have running on the kaossilator?

[JamesHaskin]

@th3th0mas You can loop infinitely, but I only had 5 loops in this video.

[96banksy]

not hating or trying to piss on your fireworks or anything i love this design but.....how do you change the batteries

[snerjeg]

@96banksy You don't need batteries there's a plug

[ItBeReece]

what do you actually sell? the whole thing your playing in the video or just the guitar hero controller?

[JamesHaskin]

@ItBeReece I sell the guitar hero controller AND the modified Kaossilator.

[SwiZert]

dude ur fucking awesome to think of this!!!!!!!!

[Schwooter]

Yeah, I'm buying A Kaossilator now.

[chatzimcfee]

Way to rip off wayne coyne from the flaming lips on his kaossilator guitar hero guitar... i can't post links but click on the first link when you type this into google "wayne coyne nbc chimes" watch the video...

[ipfreely1605]

do you ship to the uk?

[JamesHaskin]

@ipfreely1605 Indeed good Sir, I do.

[blackmatter7]

do you/can you ship to UK???

[JamesHaskin]

@blackmatter7 Yes :D

[daze1234]

you sir are awesome

[ZzKennerzZ]

Everyone with the retarted comments are stupid its extremely creative and makes a lot of sense to be a instrument because you have to keep a beat and know what goes with what your also doing 2 things at once Its a kickass Idea and it is considered an instrument by the way your a good looking guy too

[PatriotZero]

Do you still sell these?

[JamesHaskin]

@PatriotZero Yes, I sell them from my blog. Check out the video description for a link.

[trikee4]

looooool 2:04 .....he got happy

[Storm1337]

love his smile at 2:02 . everytime i see it i have to smile too :D

[ItBeReece]

i really wanna make one, but im afraid of breaking it :(

[tominator1324]

what are you running it through?

[JamesHaskin]

@tominator1324 My little Marshall 10W

[animesaul]

he looks like aston kutcher D:

[H00D04]

Haha that's sweet. I might have to look into making something like that. Sounds sweet. Good Job!

[stuntmansuff]

dude how much do u want for it

[JamesHaskin]

@stuntmansuff I sell them from my blog. It's in the description.

[thecloudisgone]

wow, that was insane

[kw1ksh0t]

Oh I thought you had put one in a real guitar ¬¬

[JAM3SYY]

So you pressing the guitar hero buttons aren't doing shit all?

Pretty much a waste of time bro.

[mebemike]

@JAM3SYY I don't think it would have won grand prize if it was that simple. He soldered connections from the guitar to the Kaossilator. Each guitar button has been assigned to control different aspects of the Kaossilator's functionality (record, tempo, key/scale changes, arpeggiator etc.) It's all in the Instructables tutorial BRO.

[Dougie666]

@JAM3SYY Guess you guys down under arnt very smart with music...

[JAM3SYY]

@Dougie666 I guess i don't need to worry because I'm not an ugly faggot like you.

And don't even speak to me about music and shit over a stupid Korg oscillator (guitar hero) guitar. It's not even apart of a musician instrument category. It's a fucking game guitar you sad case and i know I'm more of a musician then you'll ever be as much as you or any faggot on this page would like to reply to me and discriminate. Get a life stop trying to fight with me. Find something better to do with your time

[Dougie666]

@JAM3SYY saying i dont know music? and you listen to usher?... fuck man just stop. you fucking genetic pool of convic castaways, Enjoy our superior America Music. Kangaroo fucker.

[kayxren]

OMG can you please make the track downloadable >< its so good LOL

[riosay]

fuckin animal

[gf030george]

THIS IS NOT MUSIC AND YOU ARE NOT A MUSITIAN.

[tecno98]

@gf030george Dude don't comment if you can't spell MUSICIAN correctly

[gf030george]

@tecno98

Ok, my mistake.

Again

This is not music, and you are not a musician.

Is ok now?

Go to learn guitar, piano, violin or some other instrument, to play real music.

[tecno98]

@gf030george Lol yeah it's ok I guess, but he's just being creative and I would think he probably knows another instrument. Don't be so hard on him.

[ifraglife]

@gf030george music is a completely subjective thing

its all about opinions..............and in your case keep it to your self douche bag

[krakatoa47]

@gf030george how about you upload a video of your own before you talk shit about someone, huh? id like to see you play a "real instrument," dickhead.

[valerock667]

@gf030george AND YOU CAN'T SPEAK ENGLISH PROPRELY

[basketcream34]

AMAZING, very nice, good job, glad you won that thinkgeek contest

[JamesHaskin]

@basketcream34 Thanks :D

[IamSpacePilot]

omg, you're Jedi!!!

[VickyTyler]

I want this to be my ringtone

[dbeard92]

your face at 2:04 is priceless

[ZzKennerzZ]

Thats fuckin awesome man! how do you make that?? I have the guitar nad the korg. So what do i do ?

[cmyersguy]

Holy fuck, someone who can actually make good music with the kaossilator. Thank you, this was awesome!

[JamesHaskin]

@cmyersguy Thanks :D You should check out psychopath3000. I really like his video Kaossilator Christmas.

[Curri3Saan]

@cmyersguy Awhh, I am sad nuhw. :(

[KyleBickett]

looks like your moms basement

[jackie182]

THIS IS AMAZING! Great job.

[VooDooChild420YO]

I cant wait for mine to arrive, I got it on the M.F. stupid deal of the day, for $120!

and I have a spare GH controller.

You are a genius for this by the way.

[CHOPPERSUlT]

@VooDooChild420YO hope you got yours, i got mine and its awesome! pink ftw!

[vinnierkc]

dude

?

[mrdaylight]

I love it, haha nice, I think i'll.....TRY to make one. I'm a nub

[sstslide270out]

dude i hate you for thinking of this first...lol great job man....so tight.

[IamSalimas]

I fuckin love you,that was so sick OMG!!!

[losangelesgraff]

BRILLIANT!!!

[SWITCH2ZERO]

hell yea i want one



[Shadowglades]

imagine a guy playing this on the street for money xD

[sethro1]

woah 0:29 is identical to the beginning of Forever by Drake and those other thugs...

[JamesHaskin]

@sethro1 Yeah, it sounds a lot like the buzzer at a basketball game.

[sethro1]

Oh my God.  This might be the most amazing thing i have ever seen in my entire life.

I would steal your idea in a heartbeat if I knew how you configured it.

[oo1ooo1oo]

Outrageous and audacious kaoss behavior! Just imagine if I myself had the bolas to actually rewire my beloved kaossilator. "Kid with veins like yours I could have me a time..."

That bit at 2:01 that makes you smile—is that ordinarily achievable with my untouched koassilator I wonder. (The effect not the smile).

[xoxbriana12]

HOW TO DO YOU INSTALL IT IN THERE\ I DONT KNOW HOW

[unnunn12]

maximum epicness



[stee1face]

The power of ingenuity.

[machyr]

LMAO at 2:03! :D

[BrokenHearted133]

i love how he smiles at 2:01, it even made me smile

[plinianguy]

It's AWWWWWWRIGHT.

[asteffel]

Great idea! Liked the video!

[GuitarEchoes]

This actually takes a new turn on when people say guitar hero isnt for real musicians.

[Dittersch]

I've neither seen or heard something like this before and my first impression is all positive: It sounds very cool!

[tsukimarumayu]

i'm interested in buying it cause i actually make a little money borrowing my friends and going downtown and making music freestyle but what would be amazing is if you put a built in speaker i would even be willing to pay extra for this...

[Kinshasa9200]

congrats sir. this is amazing!!! do you make your own music ?

[skylerfeathersworth]

genius!! I say.....your synth guitar rocks!!

[fleurmo]

THAT IS THE BEST IDEA EVER! sicknessss.......

[thehasslessydney]

awesome awesome

[Dude383]

Sick. Five stars for you sir.

[lBlunique17]

question: do the buttons on the korg kaossilator still work if you wanted to play it that way? or is it only guitar mode now? ha

[lBlunique17]

hahaha perfect playing at shows kind of a show off toy.. i want one.

[lunarsunrise1]

hey bro...

my band wants to make a guitar like this...

but we only have the ps2 guitar.

and we were curious to find out if we sent you the kp3 and the guitar if you could build it for us...

We'd love that.

please write back.

[LCedres]

You're so cute!

[krmarlo]

I just realized a shortfall for me though...I'm an incurable leftie, lol! Is this buildable with the capacity to spin the Kaossilator around for a knucklehead like me? :)

[carzycole]

@krmarlo

Um, put it in a left hand guitar.

[krmarlo]

@carzycole

Any chance you might point me to a lefty Guitar Hero/Rock Band guitar for this mod? I've never found one, sadly.

[krmarlo]

Sweet Lord James this is pure brilliance...fantastic thinking!!!

I just got mine today, and I have a feeling I'll be picking up a second one to send your way for this mod (I don't have the guts to try to build it myself, lol!)

[DAVIDISGODLY]

That's pretty sick. I didn't care too much for the song but I'm sure you could make some wicked awesome stuff with it.

[ZenrathGoesRawr]

DUDE! This shit is gonna be like the future of music! xD

[SomeApplesauce]

i hope not....

[HyricanX]

einfach nur geil^^

[skurustryon]

you're a genious!

this is amazing

[b44styreraug]

what does the buttons on the fretboard of that toy guitar do

[timecontrol5]

lmfao thats awesome!

[Topdoginuk]

That's quite impressive.

Will you be looking to create one using a KAOS Pad 3 sometime? Perhaps a bit bulky?

Well done.

5 *

[MrNoahSeuren]

go play real guitar!!!

0_o

[xg419]

that is beyond cool man

[bonita82]

this is sick!!!!! I LOVE it.

[singana1]

THAT IS AWESOME

[aneforeffort]

how much would you charge to make one of those for me?

[emerica714]

damn u just made the kaos a million tims sicker!

[day24dreamer7]

I'm putting the finishing touches on my version of this right now man! I just chose not to rewire the buttons to the controller buttons cus' I'm not used to that type of work so I'm just installing it into the body so I can use it normally while standing up :).

[JamesHaskin]

Cool. You should post me a video response.

[day24dreamer7]

@JamesHaskin I definitely will, I play the electric guitar and plan to switch off between the two during performances. It's a one "wo"man band lol.

[AngusT07171]

You have to make a video on how you made that

[JamesHaskin]

Agreed :]

[ccalamuss]

if i could make one those text faces that looks like my jaw is dropped, i would.

[erkhole]

@ccalamuss

D:

[insanezane227]

hey man awesome job!! this is the coolest thing since they invented the internet! i have a kaossilator and im looking into making one myself but im not totally tech. ive been to the instructables website and theres only i couple things i dont get. the main thing is how do you plug it in? and are you using an amp? on the website it says your using a "Les Paul Style Jack Plate" is that like a 1/4'' input jack? and where and how do you attach it?

thanks a million and sorry for the long comment

[JamesHaskin]

All of this is covered in the instructable. The guitar it wired to send the RCA signal out a 1/4" stereo jack. You can run this to whatever you want; amp, PA, mixer, etc. Please read the entire instructable.

[yada147258]

"make it" ? you just made me shit my pants.....wtf.

[ZaneZanarkand]

WERE BRIX SHAT?

[J0EMOMMA726]

I will buy this ... one day ... It will be mine

[ragnarok9899]

Mind = Blown

[CrispMusic]

you are a true bad ass

[JamesHaskin]

thanks :]

[twofishrocks]

double yoo, oh, double yoo, I'm struggling to think of anything cooler than that instrument, that is totally totally amazing, good work mate, play it loud! My most sincere congratulations

[666jony666]

It would be soooo COOL if the whammy bar worked!!

[JamesHaskin]

IN the next month I'm gonna work on something that will include both the whammy bar and touch pad of the newer controllers.

[666jony666]

Sweeeet !!!!!!

[ragnarok9899]

Like maybe to scroll through the scales/effects and whatnot?

[skjamog]

in response to the last 10 secconds of the video: OKAY!

[elviso23]

Synthesizer. It's called syn-the-si-zer. Guitar is a string instrument, classified to the chordophone family. If something does have a neck and a basic shape of a guitar, that doesn't mean that it really is a guitar.

[JamesHaskin]

What a faggot :]

[elviso23]

Nope, sorry - not this time, lad - I'm heterosexual.

I'm a bit confused - why presenting a true statement.. or.. well.. an obvious fact made you angry? I'm not saying that it's a bad thing to play on such instrument (cause YES, it is an instrument of corse), what's more - I really admire your electronics skill. Although such device simply shouldn't be described as a guitar, at least just for keeping the terminology right and clear.

[morticiaadams]

id agree, it takes a guitar shape, but takes out the pickups, the strings, and well, everything else that makes it a guitar!

i do like the instrument, its great IMO BUT! not TECHNICALLY a guitar!

[Metallicrazy]

this is basically the keytar only 290345u23057380475034785039475­093476093476 times better

[JamesHaskin]

Exactly :]

[michaeljackson407]

coolist guitar mod

[demonoid47]

AWESOME XD

[fireball31794]

bird finger tapping solo XD

[johnharveylynn]

Hey man nice job im not cool enough to make one but i wish i could play with an existing one the loop button being out of the way is sweet and it looks like your playing guitar hero all at the same time

[mnorabuena]

Hey man can you mod the digital # cage to go on top of the neck of the guitar. So it looks like ur making a new cord but you are changing the pattern or what not with the knob? Also is they're an ac out on that thing?

[fattyJNL]

*cough* Or buy it on etsy!

[TheMusiclov3r]

this is really good!

[bigbits67]

you are a smart arse i should eat ur ass with a spoon! give me one of these now monkey boy!

[lantyboy]

Now your a clever little bunny are'nt you? lol

[mrljthedj]

u got a nice beat goin there

[xletsmakeababyx]

ahh!!! my kaossilator isn't cool anymore!!! i need one of these so bad because i use my kaossilator on stage a lot. don't have the money to buy one though. is there anywhere i can send my kaossilator to be modded into one of these so the price of the kaossilator wouldn't be included? if not im totally going to try to make one...

[BOOMBOOMFACT]

I want this...I want thiiiiiiiiiis!!

[happyguycol]

i hope you patented this

cant patent with something already patented lol
