Studio live in 2002.

自作リボンコントローラーによる、台湾歌謡"ちまき売り"の演奏です。

This handmade electric musical instrument can change a oscillator pitch smoothly, depending on the place which you press down. Ribbon Controller was originally made as a kind of MOOG SYNTHESIZER's controller in late 60's. I made this following its example. And playing style is self-taught.

This ribbon controller hooked up to simple analogue oscillator. The frequency of the oscillator changes in the value of electric resistance. Electrically, This ribbon controller is just an electric variable resistance.

what do you use for a filter? Some stuff sounds like a wah-wah band pass filter, other things sound like you have a low pass filter. very cool anyway

[TorigoyaSound]

I use KORG AX1G multi-effects pedal .

In this tune, I selected the resonanced low pass filter on it.

Both Ribbon Controller and Oscilator(which generates very simple pulse like wave) are handmade.

That was excellent!

Any chance you could tell us how you made the ribbon controler? You say what materials, but could you be a little more specific? It looks like an excellent project

Wow. Nice Work Man.

It's nice to see such a simple instrument played with such elegance and expression. I'll have to add this to my list of instruments I'd like to build sometime.
