The Multi-Plexer will produce those famous sounds that you grew up hearing on Lost and Space, The Forbidden Planet, Star Trek and other Sci-Fi classics. The name was assigned, simply because that’s what it does. The circuit sends an analog signal around in a circle, bending and distorting it, like a ring modulator. However, the MP is a FREE RUNNING Synth. No input is required for it to operate. But if you input a signal (like your guitar) it will ride the MP self generated wave. The end product is a result of many manipulations. I cannot describe its sounds in words. Please listen to the links and judge for yourself.

Circuit:The circuit is a basic pure Analog Synth (not noisy digital) with Depth, Sustain, Impact, Rate, Frequency and Volume adjustments. Only TOP Quality components were utilized. “Spared no expense” The circuit board was custom manufactured using a photo-etch system. It runs on 2- 9vdc batteries (included). Totally isolated circuit will not produce hum or ground loops on your Guitar amp or stereo as other plug in the wall synths do. This is a great gadget to add to your rock band as a creepy, self running, sound generator. It’s also a lot of fun to just play with on your home stereo. This device runs at a low frequency, therefore, it responds well to Bass guitars and keyboard inputs. It's initial design was intended for generation of neat sound effects. The input jack came later.
Check out the MP3 files that my friend in OK sent me (see links above). The original circuit was developed in the 1970’s. 30 of them have sold on the ebay so far. See my feedback for great comments on this device. This gadget is not available anywhere besides D-Lab. In other words, you will be getting a very unique item. My investment per unit is $70.00 (parts), excluding numerous hours of layout and construction time. The cost have elevated due to the cosmetic upgrades. I am doing my best to provide a top notch product. I realize that my gadget is small league compared to the big hitters (Moog, Paia & Korg). I just hope that you enjoy it. Bands around the country have been e-mailing me with great reports incorporating the Multi-Plexer's weird sound into their gigs. This device is great for Band Background weird noise or making your instrument act crazy!
This device is intended for fun or interface with your band equipment, not for development of a new Outer Limits episode. The cost is much less than store bought models and it is fully portable, unlike anything else on the market. Please e-mail me with questions or concerns before bidding. Unit comes with a nifty overview sheet for operating this crazy instrument."
