| "Matt - could you plan the sequence so that the rear wheel contribution to the piece comes out as reverb?" (Bill Christensen 6/25/2007 2:56:01 PM) |

Then you have the problem of different distances between the front and rear tires. I'm thinking the reverb (at least if made to be smoothly falling off) would be overpowering. I think the volume of a given note hitting the rear tires is around 60% of it hitting the front tires (I've hit a few 'rumble strips'..). And you'd have to calculate the best speed to travel to get a good interval between reverbs." (Matt 6/27/2007 11:12:58 AM) |
