Roots Revival soundcheck and Rasta Dub Sirens


YouTube via rootskontrolla. Star Wars Reggae
via this GetLoFi post on the somewhat fascinating use of "dub sirens" in reggae.
"Video of the system in action and an audio sample of the above device with just the noises. Whats interesting to note is that the Pitch is set via a rotary switch and not just a potentiometer. In a way that seems like it would be easier on the ears, no jumping around in frequencies. Another commercially available unit is from Theremin Planet for 130 Euros! I guess what I’m trying to say is that most of these Dub Sirens are simple dual 555 oscillators with a trigger button and Rasta colors."
