File this under hair brain schemes:
My old roomy had a way of collecting tons of drum and percussion stuff. Now he's moving to NY in a VW Golf, so---- he's been leaving a lot behind. There's a big Zildian gong that's been sitting in the practice space/live room, and I was noticing how much/long it has sympathetic vibration to loud sounds in the room.
Anyone see a chance in hell, if he leaves it, that I could rig it up with a speaker and a contact mic to use it as a small plate reverb?
Gong, for plate reverb??!

Yeah, I figure it might be an odd enough sound that it will just go on the right vocal on the right song, or the room mic on the drums. Not an every project type of thing. Maybe I'll just slap a contact mic on and put it in front of a guitar amp taking signal from the mixing desk and see what happens.
Low cost.
