Chris, as your friend, I ask you honestly. Don't you really prefer "lean
lawnmower engine with a miss" ?

My lawnmower is a modern POS that can't keep time worth diddly.

For mechanical beats I'm currently liking a 30 year old, not
overly cleaned, Marlin 1894 in .357mag. A leather strap for
the back of your fingers and a ghost ring rear sight and yer
good for about 80bpm (for 1/8 of a minute. Here computer aids
come in handy for looping. Arf.)

Now that I write this, I'm wondering if it's possible to record
it with my primitive recording gear (no compressors or anything
else fancy, but portable! - stereo mic pair to Tascam US-144 to
laptop). Also a Zoom H2 which has some whizbangs inside.

Might be fun to try.


Much thanks, as always,
Chris Hornbeck
