"The Gotharman DeMoon is an amazing handbuilt four-note polyphonic filterbank synthesizer with a built-in granulator, distortion, step sequencer, and note randomizer. This is not your run of the mill virtual analog emulator but a much grittier, ballsier alternative perfect for building dirty, glitch 4-bit/8-Bit sounds as well as speaker shaking bass, screaming lead sounds and lush pads.
These are like hen's teeth now and this unit is in MINT condition, complete with the protective plastic cover over the LCD screen
The DeMoons four oscillators are continuously variable from triangle to saw to noise and waveshaping can be modulated from all sources, including the oscillators themselves. The oscillator section also has two LFOs and an envelope plus the polyphonic and unison (with detune option) modes already give you a diversity of sounds from this section alone.
The deMOON's four filters are independently programmable and can be routed in series or parallel with individual low-pass, high-pass, or band-pass filters. The DeMoon also features the Minigran, a brilliantly easy granular synthesis engine that works by cutting up and rearranging the input into small fragments to generate new timbres. It also features an inbuilt distortion unit that has five kinds of distortion effects from your regular gain and fuzz up to insane distortion effects like XDIS that will really "destroy" your sound.
The DeMoon also features an intuitive step sequencer and note randomizer - dead simple to formulate stunning arrangements as well as a MIDI in channel for use with MIDI controllers.
I can't really do this unit justice you have to check out the sounds - and the peerless Nick BAtt gives his usual excellent overview right here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EK8JONB_q7U
