    Just put up a new page with biography and info of Julia Truchsess, who designed the Guitar Synthesizer and, among others, the Space Drum, the first EH electronic drum. A fascinating and interesting story from one of the great designers of EH’s 1st heyday.

    Awesome article, EHman! Thanks for sharing.

    I love my Crash Pad and my Soul Kiss. I wish I could find the others too, especially the Guitar Synth .

    some questions:

    She mentions a building purchased by Mike around 1980, could that be this one?

    Could that Super Space Drum II be this prototype I saw at the EHX offices?

    Can the Random Element be the RTG?

    Thanks for your comments, guys. I feel good knowing I can help or inform someone. Next up, I’m on the trail of the Clone Theory designer and the original Memory Man designer.

    hey ron, kinda OT, but do you do Stone Machines with a finish on them or is it just bare pedals now? because the demo on youtube has one in a beautiful colour

    I don’t do finishes anymore because I’d rather have people buy them for their sound and not their looks. And also because my wife doesn’t have time to do the lettering anymore.

    ah ok. i like my pedals looking flashy as well as sounding it, but yeah, i wouldn’t get a pedal purely for the looks, and i wouldn’t not get a pedal because it doesn’t look good ;)

    It mostly came down to time constraints.

    I bought a copy of that album after talking to her. Haven’t been able to listen to it yet as my turntable’s not set up but I hope to soon.
