whilst perusing the anorak section on the official site i came across this:
TSOM site wrote:We've created and collected a lot of "special effects" drum sounds, but we don't use them live because the sound would vary too wildly from song to song. It's not a practical solution unless you have everything ......running off a tape machine, like certain electronic bands we know . They might as well just play the record. We like a bit of risk, and we like to be able to tinker with things from concert to concert.
just so as you know.TSOM site also wrote:we wanted an identical spare rig, because cargo-handlers do more damage than the average military encounter, and we like to have one Doktor running while we're fixing the other. In extreme cases we can make one working Doktor out of two broken ones. We've never had to use the taped Doktor (DAT) which we carry for the ultimate emergency.
