Ever Seen One Of These?!?

Post by Shadoweclipse13 » Thu Nov 09, 2017 10:11 pm

LOM Elektrosluch 3!

Cool. As. Fuck. I want one really bad, but it appears that LOM is out of stock of them. I don't even know if they'll ship them to the US.

The possibilities of this musically, or just to hear how things sound, i.e. the scientist in me, LOVES this.

Anyone have or mess with one?

Ok, that's pretty cool.

I've had my cell phone "talk" through guitar pickups before, where I'd hear this beeping sound come through my amp a second before the phone rang, but this is like listening in on that everywhere.

I'm now picturing someone walking around their house with this stoned and blowing their mind.

Hahaha. I hadn't thought of it that way. That's hilarious.

My first thought was recording some of it and looping it for sampling for sound effects. Or strange musical applications.

In one of my bands we had a song where my bandmate would call my trusty Nokia 3310 and then he'd sing into his phone while I held mine up to my guitar pickups. You'd get a weird mix of the electronic beeping and his voice coming through the amp. I wonder if my iPhone can do that?

I wonder what the electrosluch would pick up, cool idea.

This guy's video is kind of annoying, but here's a good example of the stuff it picks up:

Thanks for the video. The whole idea is rad. I'm looking around my office wondering what everything would sound like.

Found this: https://makezine.com/projects/weekend-p ... ic-fields/

Looks fairly simple to put together but I can't ever get these types of things to work. Maybe I'll give this a whirl after the holidays.

shit's for hipsters.
Not really. I didn't say anything about a lack of music as music, I said music and sound effects.
