Non-notable. Article contains no sources substantiating notability, mentions no notable musicians who have used the instrument, and no notable tracks on which the instrument has been used. A Google search returned plenty of results for an unrelated MIDI controller, but nothing about this particular instrument. Article was deprodded on the grounds that all instruments are inherently notable. Nick Graves 17:01, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, not notable, looks like a DIY project that got out of hand. Realkyhick 18:32, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. The article is unreferenced, the nominator claimed he could not find references, and depending on how you define "musical instruments", they are not all inherently notable. Shalom Hello 05:59, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as this needs to be looked at, by at least someone who knows musical instruments. Randall O 08:35, 11 August 2007 (UTC) Randall O
    • Comment: What do you mean? I know musical instruments. I've never heard of this one. The picture shows an obviously homemade contraption. No one has yet found any source documenting that this instrument is more than someone's weekend garage project. Without such a source, we can only conclude that it is non-notable, and therefore an unsuitable candidate for its own Wikipedia article. Nick Graves 09:48, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, seems to be made up one day. I'm pretty well versed on instrumentation myself, but I don't know about this one. No relevant Google hits. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 00:32, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Nick Graves. --Mperry 01:30, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
  • delete, DIY projects are not notable. Nuttah68 13:39, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Like everything else, instruments are only notable if they are described in multiple independent sources. Rigadoun (talk) 17:33, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
