I bought this towards the end of 2018 to try and get myself out of a creative slump. I searched through gumtree for something interesting and affordable I could sample and found this thing. It sat in a corner of my living room for months gathering dust before I finally decided to sample it. Its loud, smells like its from the 60’s once the fans get going, and a few of the high noted don’t work properly.

I recorded it with an SM57 placed fairly randomly above it. The high notes that don’t work swell in to a nice weaker note so I turned them into a couple of pads.

I recommend the reverb pad!
