Massive Attack

hey guys, ive always been curious about this, and i figure this could be a proper place to ask.

anybody know what robert is using in pretty much every live performance? hes got this gray box sitting on a stand next to him and you can see him tweakin something, but what is it? ive never seen that piece shown up close so ive got no clue.

anybody?

edit: heres a video where you can see what im talking about:

(Future Proof)

edit2:changed link to another video, you can see him doin something with the piece around 3.50-4

could be a bitstream controller. their page lists an image that says “massive attack gig”, see third pic here: Wave idea Bitstream Pro and Bitstream 3X -:-:- FUTURE STYLE -:-:- electronic machines and trend artists MUSIC magazine

ah, thank you chrismp

ive also been thinking something like kaoss, because it looks like hes poking at some sort of touch surface. of course it being a kaoss pad confirms it :slight_smile:
