Acoustic Noisebox Instrument v5

Just finished a new Acoustic Noisebox Instrument version 5. I've been working on this for about a year now, I've added my favorite noise makers from the previous versions and have added a few new ideas. This thing is a monster, coming in at 3 feet long and 1 foot deep. I've installed a piezo 3 mic pickup with a mono 1/4" out. Since this instrument is made from wood, the tones are warmer. This instrument, along with tape loops and some other goodies, will be used in an upcoming ambient/noise music project. I will also be making a new big sample pack that will include samples from my last few noise boxes. More to come!

Xbox Adaptive Controller Build V3

 

Completed my son's third Xbox Adaptive Controller today. My son has cerebral palsy which affects his core muscles in which he can not walk, sit up or have much use of his arms and hands. Instead, he uses his legs and feet to explore his surroundings. And he's very good at using them, along with his amazing problem solving brain, to do just about anything that arms and hands can do. So, this controller was built just for that, this time allowing him to use two feet at once. His current favorite games are Minecraft, Roblox, Goat Simulator, Spongebob Battle of Bikini Bottom, Kart Racers, Lego games, and Grounded.
