      Wonderful box of inspiration

      Finally bought a Krankie after owning a Space Oddity for a couple of years. This is an excellent device, constant inspiration. I would absolutely love to see a “deluxe” or custom version that had a volume knob (it’s quite loud) and in-built delay. Keep up the excellent work Richard

      ACE!

      Whole family love it. Richard’s kind notes in each delivery make the special instruments even more welcome in our home. Wonderful.

      A wonderful instrument that fosters experimentation

      I spent a few hours just playing with the Krankie when it arrived - so many new ways to experience Happy Birthday! I look forward to more experimentation by creating my own songs with it, then weirdly warping them.
