Buddha machine v2
 
I was considering buying one in Tokyo for about 30 EUR but I turned the idea down after a while.

Are they worth it? Anyone has one?

Adolfo 07.09.2010 06:45 AM

I wish. check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tlFmBvfw3E
I'm probably going to buy one, on my trip to London. Maybe two, so i can mod the shit out of one and still have another in case i fuck it up.

_slavo_ 07.09.2010 06:49 AM

do they have audio output for a small jack?

Adolfo 07.09.2010 06:58 AM

no. you have to mod one. but it's pretty easy.

for the normal buddha it's maybe the same

"The machine has its own built-in speaker and there is also a headphone jack for a more personal experience. "

okay, so I think I'll get it then, as it's possible to plug it into the mix

i think this machines are made to work with other devices, like the mini kaoss pad or various effect pedals

that's right, i can imagine having that connected with my loop and pitchshifter pedals, and it might sound very well.

I bought one 4 years ago in paris. touched it once or twice, but I think its nothing more then a crappy sampler loaded with "ok" samples which indeed loop.
creating loops on your own is way more interesting and creative I think.

edit: after researching a lil, it seems that I got version I
edit2: after researching again I should give it another try :)

how much are these things worth?
btw I own the green one...I think I mentioned it before but nevermind

Friend has one. It's kinda cool in a novelty sorta way, but it's not better than listening to THE DISINTEGRATION LOOPS on repeat forever.

shabbray2.0 07.17.2010 03:27 PM

^^that blends perfectly with my opinion
