Manufactured by Emtec, this feature-packed 8GB relic of the MP3 era includes matching Tweety-branded earbuds, an external speaker embedded in the back of Tweety’s head, and a USB connector where Tweety’s throat should be. Acquired by our Collections Manager at Gadjet Jungle in Lisbon’s city centre. Sadly non-functional, probably requires a new battery.

A self-contained portable sound machine, the Buddha Machine was created by the band FM3 and intended as a pre-loaded loop-playing device. Each Buddha Machine came with a built-in speaker, a combined power switch and volume control wheel, and a chip containing nine prerecorded sound loops created by the band.
This is an example of the first edition of the Buddha Machine, before a pitch control was added in Version 2.
Star Wars® Episode I: The Phantom Menace CommTech™ Reader
Hasbro & Lucasfilm (1999)
Hasbro and Lucasfilm's attempt to create their own portable sound format on the back of the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Multiple "samples" of dialogue & sound effects from the film were encoded onto RFID chips included with action figures ("CommTechâ„¢ Chips", which also acted as display stands for the figures and contained a hole so they could be threaded onto a keychain for mass portability) that could only be played by tapping them against the massive CommTechâ„¢ reader seen here (its design based on the "Jedi Comlink" walkie talkie used by Qui-Gon Jinn [Liam Neeson] in the film, which was a kit-bashed women's shaving razor). Buttons on the reader could be used to load samples from chips and play them back so that some sounds were always available.
Altho a more advanced version was prototyped, lack of interest in the format led Hasbro to cancel the CommTechâ„¢ format (known as CommTalkâ„¢ in some countries due to trademark disputes); we think it may have had something to do with the fact that every male character's voice sounded as if their lines were being read by the same unenthusiastic & unskilled vocal actor not even attempting to change the timbre of his voice to match that of the original actors, but that's just a theory.

Testing our (small but very capable) 20ch live recording rig. The Audio Interface pictured is the Motu Traveler which offers 20ch in & 22ch out. This photograph shows a set up I used to record 16 phantom powered microphones through a combination of different formats. The first four mic inputs are the Travelers own on-board mic press. Fallowing that are four RME mic-pres connected to the Travelers 1/4" line inputs. Last, are 8 Focusrite mic-pres terminated via ADAT. The nice thing about the Focusrite is that it offers dynamics on all 8 channels and it's come in handy too!
