It's a cajón. I actually built that one myself. I've built several of them. I actually just sold two of them recently.

I used to draw plans, but I've built so many of them now I don't have to anymore. I make little improvements every time I make a new batch though. I actually might try to make some out of solid wood instead of plywood, and maybe do some cool edge glued stuff. Maybe assemble the sides with lock mitre joints instead of screws. I also want to make one out of Brazilian pine and put some old fruit crate lables with spanish writing on the side to give it a more box like asthetic.

I might make a merimbula next though...

Nice! I just saw an opened 17" flat for $139 CDN at Futureshop...damn, I should get that. My 19" CRT is just awful.

Yesterday I spent the time resurrecting my EML 200 modular which was was practially buried at the very bottom of a stack of shelfs I had created for some of my other modules and atari stuff. Of course it was at the very bottom, and took me a while to get it out and installed in its new location on top of my Receptor RackBox by the main DAW.

I had a blast patching it up doing all kinds of Mod sounds and none of it ever repeated itself. I also had it going thru receptor so I can use filters and delays on it(as the EML does not have resonant filters..It has a low pass and High pass Frq only.but still sound good.) I even had rainforst enviorments going. It has a unique module called the electronic switch, where you can aternate between two types of sounds..so had two ocillators with different mods going into it.

The only problem with it is that I think there is a ground humm which causes the oscillators to sound very nasal and grainny, and not a pure tone.( like its modulating the ground hum) However, for mod effects, it works fine. There is a synth repair place near me, and hope to get it fixed eventually. I used to have it hooked up to my CS5, and it tracked well, but due to this issue, it does not work very well as far as melodic material is concerned.

Anyway..Glad to have my EML Back!! The Blue Meanie!! I still have the original reciept and my patch book from 1977!!
