"The DinoAxe makes noise, the noise is weird.

This fun little device is a mini synth that uses two controls to make an interesting and diverse range of sounds.

The unit has two basic controls, Speed and Freq. The speed control has two functions; modulation and wobble. In Modulation mode the DinoAxe repeats the sound with a varying delay. In wobble mode the speed control varies the frequency in a sine wave pattern. The two functions are selected by rotating the speed control knob all the way counter clockwise. The Freq control varies the frequency of the sound, the first half of the control range is tones from low the high frequency, and the second part of the range is noise, noise, and more noise.

The output is via a 3.5mm stereo socket which can be plugged into earphones, a computer sound card, mixer or amplifier. I used a little vox amp in the video.

* The DinoAxe is powered by a 9v Battery which is not included due to shipping restrictions.

"The Wicks Looper is a small handmade device that allows you the create real-time noise loops and sound effects.

This fun little device will allow you to build up a sound loop in real time using the tempo, sound and write controls.

The wicks looper has 3 main controls; The sound control adjusts the frequency of the tone in the first half of the dial and the level of noise in the second half of the dial, giving two distinct sounds. The second control is Tempo, which controls how fast the loop is played. Write the loop at a slow tempo then speed it up for a great effect. The third control is the write button, when pressed it writes a sound to memory which is then replayed next time the loop is run. With the sound control knob adjusted anticlockwise, you can add a rest to the loop by pressing the Write button.

The output is via a 3.5mm stereo socket which can be plugged into earphones, a computer sound card, mixer or amplifier.

* Item shipped from Australia, all prices are in US$.

* The Wicks Looper is powered by a Common 9v Battery which is not included due to shipping restrictions.

"The Wicks Looper – Acid Mix is a small handmade device that allows you the create very fast noise loops, by adding layers of sound in real time.

The wicks looper has 3 main controls; The frequency control adjusts the frequency of the noise, the first half of the range is tame, the 2nd half is uncut noise. The second control is Speed, which controls how fast the loop is played. The right hand side of this control plays the loop, forwards, turn the control to the left and the loop will play in reverse. Write the loop at a slow tempo then speed it up and reverse it, for a great effect. The third control is the write button, when pressed it writes a sound to memory which is then replayed next time the loop is run. With the Freq control knob adjusted anticlockwise, you can add a rest to the loop by pressing the Write button.

The output is via a 3.5mm stereo socket which can be plugged into earphones, a computer sound card, mixer or amplifier.

* The Wicks Looper Acid – Mix is powered by a Common 9v Battery which is not included due to shipping restrictions.

Q: What is the difference between the normal Wicks Looper and the Wicks Looper – Acid Mix?

A: The Acid Mix version plays loops about 4 times faster by making the sound played very short, it gives a ruff, out of control sound. The Acid Mix will also plays loops in reverse.
