You'd know exactly what it was if you heard it. That little wooden box has a metal thingee inside it that goes back and forth, hitting both sides in rapid succession, and diminishing volume as the vibration of the whole device decreases. Sounds similar a rattlesnake. You hear it at the beginning of slinky jazz-funk grooves, usually it marks the "1" of the beat. >>>>>>> How's that for thread drift?
