"Alesis nanosynth. replaced battery and inserted battery clip for user replacement. item is based on my color wheel patching system and is probally one of the most flexible, easiest, and intuitive way to circuit bend. alot of specialty parts (micro rotaries, hardware, sloped hammond enclosure multi function leds and specialty rotaries)
everything works perfectly and is in very clean condition. will come with power adapter and original user manual. since the patching is fairly intuitive instructions will be a basic email explaining the circuit bending features to the purchaser.
a few mild disclaimers as i like to be upfront: i have used this for about a year for personal use. also to make room for modifications the metal cover has been removed which exposes the circuit board as pictured. some common sense to not touch the exposed circuit board or allow metal objects to short onto circuit board. seller claims no responsibilities for damages. the unit will occasionally crash. i have noticed this only on certain patches only but this is due to the complex nature of the circuit bend as well as every possibility being exploited for circuit bending via the interface. this was intentionally designed to expose every bend but because of this it is unavoidable to escape the occasional power down power on to reset the instrument. it is not destructive in any way. it simply crashes or will freeze or make a loud white noise and stop playing. patch mapping bends is highly recommend for recalling settings rather than improvising bends for live performance purposes. since this is one of the crazier bends and the beast is tempermental the trade off is a good one in lieu of simpler circuit bend units with more predictablity/stability. this will be a extremely rare and exotic synthesizer and most likely a one of a kind from me personally and quite possibly a one of a kind in the world.. i have alot of circuit bends and to be honest i'm trying to simplify my gear/life etc so i have to let a few things go. also i have been circuit bending considerably less with only a few instruments made a year. i have less time to circuit bend so any output from me is going to be pretty rare in general as i am mostly only doing a few custom bends a year and this was simply a project made for myself.
the sound demos above [below] features the nanosynth simply triggered via keys and velocity. the 2nd demo is a collection of patches one after another played with keys and velocity. notice this is for the alesis qsr but which is very similiar to the nanosynth in almost everyway (except for os, a few wave forms and file structures)"
