The Stompbox
The Stompbox is an electric percussion instrument that is played with the
foot.
It was designed to add an "unautomated" rhythmic beat for
the musical soloist.
The sound created is dependent on how the performer taps their foot, and the settings on the amplifier or p.a. system . The type of shoe used will also impact the sound produced. Effects such as a pedal EQ give a variety of different tones. A Direct box will also improve the signal to a pa system. I personally use a small amp. The Stomp box can also be used as a trigger for a synth or drum module. For recording it makes a great click track if tempo changes occur in the music. I also use it as a teaching tool to help develop rhythmic awareness in my students.
