Tim, thanks for mentioning this: inspired by the above, I took a Remo
spring drum
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0002GFS3G/
held it suspended by the end of the spring, then applied the E-Bow just
below my hand, bending the spring across the channel of the E-Bow with
very little pressure: just enough for the bottom end of the E-Bow channel
to act as a bridge for the spring. The result was a minimal-attack moan as
the vibrating spring shook the spring drum head, reminiscent of the wind
sounds in the planet landing sequence of Ridley Scott's _Alien_. Very
cool, thanks.
Oh, and Andy:
best,
Steve B
