Turning A Giant Water Tank Into A Drum Machine

In this video, appropriately titled Extreme Sampling In A Post-Apocalyptic Playground, we watch Youtuber Benn and Gear and synth wizard Richard Devine record samples from abandoned trucks and turn them into rhythmic masterpieces with the Polyend Perc.

Gear used:

• Polyend Percs
• MPC Live
• Rode NT-SF-1
• Sound Devices 788T-SSD
• Zoom H3-VR
• Zoom H6
• Sennheiser MKE 440 (video audio)

From both a compositional and performance perspective, Polyend Perc can be used to do some pretty incredible things when it comes to creating unconventional rhythms, and this video is a great example of that. Who knew that a large hollow water tank could be used to create such sonically rich and diverse sounds!
