"Operating Glitch-Bitch is very simple.......

Flick the Power Switch to 'ON' and the machine will play a short musical melody. Now simply Play around with the Glitch Buttons & Switches to Scramble, Mangle & Glitch out the various waveforms entirely beyond recognition and well into the realms of mind-blowing glitch electronica..... This is music mode, and you can expect to create Mis-formed melodies, Complex Musical Loops, Dis-Embodied tunes and Original Compositions based around fractured pieces of Bleepy Melodies.

Speech Mode - Glitch-Bitch is at her finest when producing electronic Speech.....

To activate Speech mode simply Hold the Green Button for 3 seconds after powering on the machine.

The machine will then proceed to spew out a random cacophony of grainy electronic speech in the form of Random Words, Sentences, Phrases, Letters and Numbers. Once Speech Mode is activated, an array of Switches, Buttons, Knobs and a Light Sensor can be used to Modulate, Glitch, Scramble and Mangle to sound well beyond recognition and often beyond description............

Although the speech is very much random, the pattern is identical every time speech mode is used. This means that will a small amount of practice, performances can be rehearsed and operation quickly becomes intuitive.
