I have a lot of reverb on this sound. Effects on internal sounds are simply a dial on the instrument, so you can adjust on the fly.
I'm having a lot of fun using the MalletKat. There are new pads for the instrument and they feel great!
The MalletKat is a serious electronic instrument for professional percussionists. I can do so much, dampening, pitch bend, 2 instruments layered and a lot more.
Not that real title!

I don't know anything about him. Just checking him out and trying to figure him out.

One interesting fact is that Lee is Christian Mcbride's father. He's also a great bass player.
Check out the Lumina Electronic Mallet Instrument. It's pretty cool.
Thought I'd post this for many reasons. 1. the music is great. 2. Ken is very talented and 3. HE HAS A LUMINA.
I don't think they make a lumina any more (not sure).
It used mallets that sent out signals so each mallet could be it's own sound.
Ken knows more about it then me obviously, maybe he'll talk about it here.
Check out all the sections of this piece and how he moves from one section to the next. Great stuff!
Did this a long time ago!
I played this song with my student Oliver Mayman. He's a fantastic player and graduating in a couple of weeks. He will be missed!
