Probably faked, note how the camera angle shifts each time he uses it. I doubt the mixer would have enough torque to move the window.

Steve Smith still wins tho.

I was expecting they were going to go into an explanation of the scientific principle behind a cement mixer. (Yes, the drink)

OMG, the only reason I can upvote this is because of Vista's 'advanced' per-program mixer. Mute Firefox, let Winamp rip. Hurray!

Those mixers REALLY rule.

I love all the cable spaghetti everywhere! It drives some people crazy (my girlfriend), but I love having cables snaking everywhere. Check out the setup diagram I made for the sleep concert I held. (heh, i made this diagram to figure out what cables i needed to get from the place where i rented that mixer) It's nothing compared to what these guys had to deal with, but it looked pretty frakkin' sweet all put together- Pictures

I wish I had more gear. Not enough cables involved in my Juno106.

I wonder if they have moderators for when a fight breaks out over the name of the blender. Is it a mixer, food processor, blender, appliance.

This reminds me a LOT of the electro-acoustic band I was in back in high school. Sure it was fun, but it got really frustrating after a few years. We had all this kick ass synth gear, with SO much potential- Korg MS20, Vocoder and Sequencer, Moog MG-1, a half dozen drum machines, guitars, clarinet, two dozen effects pedals, microphones, probably close to a hundred different found sound percussion instruments (aka junk, except junk that happened to sound cool when you hit it- for example an old HD that was probably about 15 inches in diameter), cords everywhere, a couple of PCs, an Atari ST... it was such an AMAZING studio, and we just went every week and played with it. I have probably close to 100 hours of recordings of us screwing around with that gear.

...

And for all of that potential- nobody seemed to be interested in actually making "real" music. It was "experimental" which seemed to be mostly formless noodling.

Anyway, the technology in this video really should be in the hands of mashup artists. Hell, any proper DJ, really. I think it would be good to have kind of as a plug-in to your mixer. Ready, set, mix- "ok, the new track is in and three, two, one- FREAK IT UP!" flip the switch and unleash this madness for a few bars.

Actually!! Take Track A that is playing, and use the freakulator to mimic it with sounds from Track B- slowly mix that in, then increase the grain size until it just sounds like a weird chop of the track you're about to play, then BOOM- let them have it with Track B.

This would totally be awesome to play with.

Yes, I hate that too. I am partially deaf and wear a bone conduction hearing aid, and some of the videos have totally low volume even if I crank up my mixer volumes.

If I can't hear it, down votes/low score from me!

This is so pointless. But there is a good idea behind it. THey should make something like this for mixers and cocktails.

This video is excellent proof of how and why a good sound mixer earns his or her income. The part with all three people talking could well be made to work, but the mixer would have to be constantly making one voice loudest and bringing the other two down. He had the technology to lay three copies of himself in the video but didn't take the time to make the audio work.

Basically, he missed the whole point of a fugue - that all the lines are overlapping, but the individual notes are rarely playing at the same instant. If they were, it wouldn't be a fugue, just a bunch of dense chords.
