Thingamagoops



"What is that thing!?
The Thingamas are really just simple, analog type synthesizers that you control in a different way.

The Thingamas have oscillators just like any synth. On analog synths the oscillator that creates the actual tone you hear is called a VCO or voltage controlled oscillator. The Bleeps work a little differently so we'll just call it the main oscillator. Instead of using a keyboard, the main oscillator in the Thingamas is controlled by a photocell."
