Huh... I didn't sit through all 24 minutes of that video, maybe I missed this: No external voltage control input for modulating that Mix parameter?
While I'm making a wish list: Separate Mix parameter for each of the four filters.
Also, I want a pony.

I really enjoy mine and feel like I have only scratched the surface.
I watched it all. I didn’t see mention of that. There were some clever moments on the demo using VCAs resulting in some impressive sound movement. I’m tempted to snag one but need to think of how I’d route my sounds.

...and the YT rabbit hole begins

Is the bassist using crazy light strings?
oh man
Lightning Bolt (band) - Wikipedia
Gibson plays his bass guitar tuned to cello standard tuning, in intervals of fifths (C G D A), using a banjo string for the high A. He used this four-string setup for several years, but has recently been seen using a five-string setup, tuned to C G D A E, with banjo strings for the A and E.[24] Gibson also uses several effects pedals, including overdrive pedals, an octaver, a delay pedal, and a whammy pedal (pitch shifter).[25]

It’s actually more like:
1-download Reaper
2-……..
3- trial period over, uninstall
4- return to step 1
I did. The pictures are amazing. That’s how I found my way to those Lightning Bolt videos. It was a good night for the rabbit hole.
I personally prefer the drummer’s solo gigs.
With samples, triggers, pads etc….
You can see some of his effects pedal work in the Hilarious Attic video.
I saw Lightning Bolt in the early 90's perform at an art opening while living in Philly. It was a group show for their communal live/work art warehouse in Providence called Fort Thunder. At that time they were way less cohesive than in either of those two performances. I remember the drums being individually miked through pedals. It was beyond cacophony. It sounded like distorted bass driven to the verge of speaker explosion being played in a thunderstorm coupled with even louder repetitive lightning cracks from the drums. The vocals were completely unintelligible, another over modulated instrument. I think the mike was taped to whatever mask, hat, rag he had on. Their equipment looked cobbled together, lots of duct tape. I thought the drums wouldn't make it through the set, he was bashing the f*** out of them. I couldn't look away. It's cool that they're still at it and refined it to what it is now. I like it.

Ive been looking for a « tech savvy » drummer to do that kind of electronic, free jazz, hip hop, experimental thing fro about 10 years now.
(By that I mean a drummer that knows his way with FX, samplers, live sound manipulation…etc….)
Any place I can order one??
the hilarious attic thing is a hoot.
the manikin and the pile of drumsticks (?) against the wall are worth the price of admission.

Pictures of Fort Thunder where they lived with bunch of other artists and another band are like that times a few hundred.
