WEIRD GEAR: Soma Synths Pipe

[@nateizzo4696]

If it's just a 1/4 inch jack for the mouthpiece, I wonder what a guitar or other instruments would sound like being run through it

[@rewindoffical5280]

Same

[@GregJonson]

You could also probably attach this to a regular microphone so that you don't have to french kiss the device.

[@charleslambert3368]

Or the other way around. Like a normal mic setup, but with the mouthpiece thing.

[@QuotePilgrim]

@@charleslambert3368 that would just sound exactly like his demonstration of the contact mic's audio in the video, at 1:51

no cause you don’t blow through it to make noise, you actually make the noise and it adds effects to it

Seems like it'd readily lend itself to being a synth trombone or trumpet. Mouthpiece is almost like that of a brass instrument rather than anything with a reed that is usually considered a woodwind. Could probably set up the buttons to mimic valve fingering, or one of the knobs as a slide.

[@AndyChamberlainMusic]

those beauty shots at the beginning were INSANE especially that bullet time shot where the one knob stays still in the center... dude this is so good

[@angelusnielson7135]

[@xxTHExxABYSSxx]

Vaping isn't bad.

[@Prosecute-fauci]

@@xxTHExxABYSSxx just like in the 1940s cigarettes werent bad. In fact, doctors used to prescribe them for all sorts of ailments. The truth is, we dont know yet. Who knows, in 30 years we may be dealing with a new form of lung disease that is linked to vaping. I suppose we will all find out together. I hope I'm wrong.

[@mickeyrube6623]

Yidris TL;DR: Vaping Cures Cancer! Those two things are not even comparable. People knew that cigarettes caused cancer as far back as the 1940s. In 1929 Nazi scientists noticed this, and people in Germany quit smoking in droves. It was the tobacco industry that got doctors to “ignore” the evidence and lie for ad campaigns. Vaping, on the other hand is a word that can mean different things. You can vape marijuana, nicotine, or E juice with no nicotine. In the early 90’s I would vape weed from vaporizers that were huge and expensive. There were no propylene glycol or glycerin, or flavoring. You would exhale COMPLETELY CLEAR vapor. I don’t see why dried tobacco can’t be vaped in the same way. People have been smoking marijuana heavily for centuries, and scientists see less lung cancer in heavy weed smokers than expected from that amount of smoking. Tobacco has been smoked heavily since the arrival of the Europeans to America in the 16th century. But lung cancer was rare in the 1890s. Then, boom! By 1940 it was the second highest type of cancer death. The tobacco industry became wealthy as people got addicted to nicotine and started to put unnecessary chemicals into cigarettes to make sure the industry kept growing. The same thing is happening with the “vaping” industry. There are no reports or studies that say vaping might be anywhere as bad as cigarette smoking. No scientist would bet his reputation that 50 years from now it will cause all kinds of deaths. But doctors and scientists did do just that in the 40s and 50s. It’s not the same.

[@penwoopydo]

Andrew Huang got Health Canada to make vaping facts and then he got his KZbinr friend to make a vaping psa and he then did vocal chopping and made a whole song out of it. here’s the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2Syemege816brc I have edited this comment 3-4 times.

basically a guitar pedal for your vocal chords

[@Dsowers777]

[@duckie6940]

xD

[@InPillForm15]

I think you should make a track with the pipe that builds up, and then the drop cuts to the "camera audio" of just your voice doing weird stuff, and then the real pipe sounds kick in after that! It would sound cool I think

[@ace-smith]

this is a great idea, andrew needs to see this

Just a heads up to anyone interested in this fine piece of gear. It costs roughly $500 US, it includes a mic (normal) but there are 2 other types (flatty & bassy) which are $35 each, you can get it in either black or white, be prepared for very high shipping costs due to it coming from Russia (nothing can really be done about that). I just ordered one in white with both of the additional mics, shipped to CA it costed $685. That's right $115 for shipping sadly but I'm super excited to try this thing out. Also, YES, you can plug other instruments into the jack and use it as an effects processor/pedal. Part of the reason I wanted it.
