For decades, wrenches have been a reliable tool for mechanics and construction. Now, they're a tool for musicians!

• Wrenchophone (KS mallet & wrench strikes), wind chimes, and impacts
• 2 microphone perspectives (modern stereo condensers or vintage mono dynamic)
• Up to 3x round robin
• Effects (cutoff, sample start, attack, tremolo, slow motion)

Awesome, thanks. Been waiting for that. Only somewhat kidding. I’ve always wanted to sample a ratchet. Also wish i had recorded (well) our percussion rig hanging in the cellar basement that was made of exhaust pipes.

Maybe I'll sample some ratchets as part of a future update!

A percussion rig made out of exhaust pipes? That seems like something that had some unique potential!

Yes, our percussionist/drummer worked in an auto parts supply store. They were “surplus”

There were about 10 per rack, three racks. We’d get all wound out and end up all playing them at once. The futurists would be proud!

I’m settling in for two weeks of sampling at a house sit. My friend has a whole trailer of tools, i’m (even more) inspired, now!

Sounds like the perfect way to spend a week! I'll actually get a similar opportunity in a couple of months. Get into that sampling zen and good luck!
