Hey everyone, I'm new here, so I'll try not to piss anyone off!
heh
On "Taking Control", I swear that the blippy drums and percussion are from an old casio keyboard that was out in the mid to late 80's, I had one when I was about 6 and I SWEAR it's the same one.
Can anyone confirm it for me, and if so, could you tell me which keyboard it is? (model number, etc)
Thanks everyone
Oscillik

Welcome mate. Your probably right and there is bound to be someone here who will know and then be able to give you and exact history of the keyboard. Lot of knowledgeable people here. Me not being one of them.

thanks :)
yeah, it's just i loved that keyboard, it had a little voice record thingy on it too, you could record about 12 secs on it, and playback.
that and the blippy drums are the only things i can remember about it!
anyways, i'll try to reply to stuff ASAP, but bcoz i only get access at work / mates house, it might be limited!

Good bunch of people here. Scan through some of the other threads and you'll get a really good idea of the type of people.

Ah yes, those sounds were part of the drum kit on the Casio PT-82 keyboard.
Not saying that RDJ actually used one on the recording.. These days, sample packs are available with sounds from this and 1000s of other models.
ps- welcome aboard! *hands oscillik a small peice of paper with the words 'get out while you still can!' scribbled haphazardly*

Do you reckon it's possible to still get one? Probably be bloody expensive though right?

i just done a search on yahoo for it, and pulled up some pics
it's not the one that i had. the one i had was black, and the micrphone part had painted silver lines accross it, you know, like they have those lines accross the speaker?
(am i talking complete bollox here? lol)
i guess it must be a standard percussion sound for the casio's around that time?

Hey man Predator is good. Have you seen the new figures? I think they're part of Movie Maniacs 5 on spawn.com. They look nice.

The Pulse Rifle would be sweet. Probably not that far off the Thermographic goggles. Probably in a Test stage somewhere in the heart of Germany.

yeah, you can get a BB Pulse rifle from www.monstersinmotion.com
and www.gemreproductions.com do non-working, but full weight/size replicas
DAMN good they are too!
but pricey! the BB gun is $3000! no IDEA how much the replica one is from GEM

yeah, song made me smile a lot...
all that cheapo drummachines sounds /keyboards sounds....think it was mixture of casios, yamahas & the like rather than just one model....
the guy pulled it off tho....with some DSP trickery at the end, of course...
great soong...one of the best on there I reckon...
