Now I want a keytar!! XD

[AliothSenator]

What keytar is that??

[AdrienChaos]

That's sick.

[zeonflare]

Hey what sound module are you using?

[VacTrooper]

@zeonflare KORG R3.

[AylatheRaichu]

Sweet dayumn, the sound produced by that thing is almost arousing. How hard is it to play something like that?

[VacTrooper]

@AylatheRaichu LOL thanks man. It takes a little bit of time to get used to, but once you get it down, you're good. :)

[drakeishfyre]

why not just make the r3 into a keytar? thatd be sick.

[VacTrooper]

Thank would be, but I'm selling it for a Radias. ;)

[drakeishfyre]

@VacTrooper

lucky, lol.

make a Radias keytar XD

[VacTrooper]

LOL, now that would be funny!

[drakeishfyre]

@VacTrooper

so how did you manage to make this? I have no power tools or anything for a project like this.... and I want a keytar

[VacTrooper]

I used a vacuum-forming machine to make the handles that I sculpted from plaster of paris. Once the parts were formed, I epoxied the handles in place, and made the seam less noticeable, and painted. Took me maybe a couple weeks to finish. I'm selling this, BTW (for cheaper than a Roland Keytar). If you're interested, let me know.

[drakeishfyre]

@VacTrooper

FML. If I hadn't dropped HS engineering at the start of the year (teacher was terrible and it hurt my GPA) I'd have access to the schools vacuum-forming machine.

And, while I can't promise I'll buy, I'm definitely interested. If the price is fair I may buy. Mind messaging me?

[LARESISTENZA]

Real good!

[VacTrooper]

thank you!

[RedSox626]

what patch did u use?

[i have an r3 also]

[VacTrooper]

I used the A26 Lead (Under vintage lead, I think) patch, and made it more velocity sensitive. I then cranked the Release to 127, and added a slow phaser. Oh, and I think a bass boost.

[RedSox626]

@VacTrooper thanks man, keep up the good work

[Bumalicious20]

ive always wanted a keytar... how much did it cost you?

[VacTrooper]

I think this set me back about $40 or so. I already had the vacuforming machine on hand so... yeah. :)

[xmusicguyx]

how did you get a keytar for 40 bucks? i look on the internet all the time and ive never seen one lower than 800 bucks

[VacTrooper]

I made it.

[VacTrooper]

Yup, it's pretty big. Thank you!

[8394147]

Good sound. Looks a little big for a keytar though! Damn.

[tedphoenix]

outstanding!! really nice. did you make it?

[VacTrooper]

yes sir i did make this. thanks for the comment!

[VacTrooper]

you'll get there. just put some money aside, and you'll get there. :D Just time and patience.

[PugOfDoom]

I want a Keytar, some awesome keyboards, and your skills, too. ;___; I'm getting there though.
