Drums kit-Gypsy MIDI Controller

[pjthaipjthai]

If they didn't cut the video back n forth this guy would look like he's oddly cooking

[bschmitty1992]

this would be kill if this douche had rhythm lol

[mryellow123]

So gay.

Can be done with flexible strips for $2 rather then mechanical arms for a start.

[badmuthahubbard]

I do believe this has more video cuts than the shower scene in Psycho, within about 25 seconds.

[1Nk0Rr3kT]

ohhh! of course i'll buy it when it's cheapper than a real drum kit

asshole

[wasnt4me]

An instrument like that I believe shouldn't be used with drums. Drums are fast paced, gets you tired, wear and tear. That's why we have drum machines like the MV-8800! The Gypsy sounds great with synths sounds, anything with smooth body movements. I like this body suit, I would like to buy one!

[seelangay]

true....but DUDE U CAN FINALY AIR DRUM!!!! lol

[seelangay]

lol,but it isnt worth $1000 US

[PeterD2S]

a working air drum!

[djmelucho]

Pues para hacer ejercicio estaria muy bien.

[candyqueenify]

@djmelucho es cierto

[mattchuw91]

uhh, why?

[DTRemcoG]

Okay.. this is cool. =D

I wouldn't mind owning such system.

[SilentProximus]

certainly not particularly practical, but it would make a great concert prop. Probably like play a bass line with it. Other than that, I don't see any legit musical possibilities..

[chris75ca]

talking bout possibilities, creating something like this doesn't stop the possibilities, few years ago cellphone doesn't exist or even a video on your cp doesn't came arcoss anyones mind..try to visualize this...waving your hands using this technology as if you're drawing a square in the air and a holographic video will appear..i guess you will say imposible, right, but i would like to think out of the box which creates more possibilities

[cybawatt]

Drum sounds aren't so good, but it's still a very cool MIDI device.

[burnedtheniggashand]

reminds me of forest gump with his polio braces

"yo mamma sure cares about your education, you dont talk much do ya.."

"..EEE EEE EEE EE!!"

[skatefarmerftw]

its completly pointless, its just simplyfying midi controllers by so much..there are only like 6 samples to assign, it makes you look gay aswell.

[Nijitechie]

With a little tweaking this could be beyond cool.

Imagine a concert with no instruments...the cyberpunk-addicted-geek in me is happy at this vid.

[CountMonaco]

i am here to expose this fraud!!!

look when he hits the crash up high followed by ANOTHER crash where the kick drum is supposed to be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

[TheSleepersBeats]

play real drums, faggots, noone wants to see someone moving like a queer just to play drums

[bernieburnalot]

I concur...sort of.... MY complaint is that if you listen to the music, it is apparent that holding down even a simple beat with this set up would be next to impossible. The drum performance sounds like a beginner.

[bassmannie]

Is this Andy Barlow of Lamb?

[ronnysoeberg]

I dare you to do a doublestroke roll with that thing... Or even just ghosting on the snare, or some intricate ride work. It's a gimmick. I do see it being used for other things than drums though.

[wooferwrecker]

oh god...

I just got sick from the camera work...

I bet a really fast drum solo would look like a cracked out interperative dance. lol.

[segarch]

lol, this device is cool, but using it in this way is a huge gimick.

[masterpiraka]

how? Just because it's a use? I mean come on.

[segarch]

A gimmick is something that's unique but isn't particularly useful. Playing drums with this device may look really cool, but you can't realistically expect anyone to play professionally with that. It's just not a precise enough device, and you're not going to be impressing any crowd with a beat this simple.

[masterpiraka]

It was just a demonstration. Let's wait for someone to push it to the limit before we call it a gimmick.

[BigPeteTV]

Actually its Really a Gimmick ..i have to agree...

[segarch]

Hey I think the device it self might work out, especially for filter control during a live performance, I'm merely referring to its use as a drum machine.  You just can't expect this to come close to a midi pad surface in terms of precision.
