I've just discovered Handsonic online and I'm looking for a way to get one. I appreciate the explorations but can't help think about how it doesn't address the primordial essence of percussion as coherent groove (even with transitions). I guess that's why this is called a diary...

[odiolorgnette]

... well, I'm searching different things... yes it's a diary with all its daily imperfections, moods... don't know exactly what you are looking for... may be you can watch Handsonic diary#12 on this odiolorgnette channel... check out also 2 other channels: qiipnmidyorgomnug (watch #4 and #6) + handsonic1 (scratching adapted technics) ... both on youtube... w/ my best regards...

this is quite cool. It seems you are sending/bussing only some sound from handsonic to the Kaoss pad. are you using a mixer, if so how do you set up patches and such to make that happen.

I like the sample/loop stuttering at the end, when you start when you play the effect, rather than just let it be passive.

I like the pinky-technique with the ribbon controller...

I use a kp-2 at my drumkit, and have to play it with sticks in my hands.

cheers mate.

... no mixer... Handsonic + 2 Kaoss pad in this video... KP2 as seen on the left of the screen and a KP3 just below (not visible)... all the kits used here (and in all the videos up-loaded on youtube) are personal configurations and custom-made settings... re:Cheers!

Hi there I'm from Portugal And I enjoy your playing very much nice grooving with Handsonic and Kaoss pad I think If you buy the KD-7 for kick drumming it will be awsome.Keep on grooving.

[odiolorgnette]

... Roland KD-7 kick drum is not really useful with Handsonic... w/ 10 fingers on the pad it's enough to play... Let's consider the Handsonic as a different instrument that is not supposed to replace real drums... all the best...

danney carrey from tool uses it and i know alot of electronc drummers use it as well.

[lauravan1]

would anyone know any artists who use this instrument?  i thought cepia might but i could be wrong.

[GSAutoTech]

100% awsome!!!!!!!!!

the apparatus you have the handsonic going through, that's a korg product isn't it? I forget the name, but if its the one im thinkin about(which it sounds like it) thats freakin awesome. I recently got the microKorg synth and the roland spd-s sampler pad. fun stuff. like your jam

[tseeko]

vous etes formidable, mon ami. all the best to you from a hand percussionist in the philippines (trying to learn as much varied world percussion in traditional form)...
