Guernsey Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Hey Geunsey, there was a program on the tele a few years ago about a bloke who had an electronic didgeridoo. (he called it a cyber didge). He toured the Northern Territory and it was a hit with the locals. Apparently he could alter the sound of the instrument, record and playback over the top of a current tune/blow??. It looked like a tunable blackbox thing mounted to the Didge with adjustable knobs. Sounded great on the tele.Just thought uou might want to know Maynard I have heard about it but never seen it, sounds fascinating. I do have normal didges, slide didges and a box didge. 'Didge' ever hear of one of those Alan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BecM Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Well as my other half mentioned I am a Secondary College Principal, which means I am a teacher (strange to have a principal that actually teaches but I do! Mathematics and Science) Before that I worked with molecular vaccines, before that kitchen hand, cleaner, dish washer and anything that paid the bills. I am also a Muso (Singer, keyboards, flute, viola, saxophone etc.. Jack of all trades master of none) .. seems to be a trend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Evan. Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I am also a Muso ..... seems to be a trend There sure is a trend here... I didn't mean to derail the thread! A Recreational Flying Band at Natfly sounds like fun, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
