    He is showing what a Korg kaoss pad does
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

  • If that's the worst demo you've ever seen you've barely lived. 

    It's not the best demo ever but at least you get some idea of what the kaoss pad can do.

    I'd be surprised if you could find just one that is actually worse to be honest

    You sure it's not just the device that you think is shit? Or is that device capable of much better than that and he really is bad a demoing it?

    P.S. I never knew the wee boy from the Goonies played the guitar now

    The old gearwire demos were absolutely fabulous horrific. The guy literally spent longer opening the box and showing you how to unfold the manual (I shit you not) than doing any playing.

    Youtube is also absolutely awash with "demos" of electric guitars where the acoustic sound of the strings is louder than the amplified sound, where the gain on the amp is cranked so high that you can't hear the guitar anyway.

    The demo in the OP isn't very good: but it at least gives you some idea of the capabilities of the Kaoss pad. I've seen many a worse demo, but frankly you'll have to forgive me if you think I'm wasting time looking for some :D

    Just goes to show you what you can make if you sellotape a Go-Pro camera to a bike rack....

    Surely those Henry Kaiser/Alexander Dumble videos have to be the last word in demo awfulness?
