'With a total of 9 knobs, the Drone Commander offers two manually-tuned oscillators and two LFOs, plus an unusually colorful and nasty filter. LFO1 is an analog variable-shape oscillator, and LFO2 is a pulse waveform that auto-synchronizes to LFO1 at a ratio of 2x, 4x, 8x, or 16x. Both LFOs can be routed to the filter for rhythmic patterns. A line-level output jack is provided for connection to amplifiers or effects.
Six of the Drone Commander’s nine knobs double as push-pull switches to control signal routing and waveform selection.
The Drone Commander is housed in a dark green military ammunition case with engraved aluminum control panel. The case is welded steel with an easily removable, rubber gasketed lid. There is almost no plastic in the drone commander! It measures 10″(w) x 7″(h) x 3.5″(d), and weighs about 6 lbs.
The unit is powered by a 9V battery accessible through a slide-out drawer in the side, as well as a 9VDC adapter.'"
I have one of these bad boys...it is SICK. I recently played a drone set in a park with a friend on violin, we couldn't tell each other's output apart. Needless to say, it has a very warm, potentially nasty, sound to it. If you want to put your audience in a trance, pick one of these up.
