Hi Andy, sorry for the late reply. Just reading your book - totally cool! No I've never tried that type of piezo, sounds intriguing. I'll give it a go next time I'm 'piezo mode'. I use the cheapo bellbuzzer types for non-critical apps and the MEAS film when I want an audiophile sound. As far as the FET buffers go, I bought a load of generic 1 transistor PCB boards and use those to fabricate unity gain buffers with 10 Mega-ohm IP impedance as the need arises. It must be said that the few BSS AR 116 DI boxes that we have make fabulous piezo IP's too, due to the hi impedance in and the wide bandwidth. The MEAS make fabulous contact mics for gongs, cymbals and, my favorite, sawmill blades. Rich Duckworth

It's the most devastating moment in a young mans life, when he quite reasonably says to himself, "I shall never play The Dane!"

The fact that he created it on a sequencer in 97 and not on a drumkit in
1963 doesn't make any difference to me.
Ok, but could "beatjazz" be played in an other way than Onyx did ? If "beatjazz" can't be triggered pre-record patterns, it's pity (for me) that the audience think it is...
By the way, if Flim had been created in 63 it would make a big difference for me... The context of a creation matters, don't you think ?
Cheers...
