"Sismo is a collection of analog tools and conceptual instruments. Uniques. The materials used for its construction are diversified for each collection.

Sismo’s instruments combines the process of creation in new media art, centered more on a sound experiences than a technique, datasheet or schematics.

The main idea reminds in 2004 by the artist Cristiano Rosa (http://panetone.net) when started developing modular synths and in his journey discovered a new family of instruments. Low current sequencers (0 – 5V), low consumer devices, and portable systems. Sometimes power by battery, solar cells or external power source.

Designing for live-performance, audiovisual installations, educational practices and experimental interaction.
Sismo creates instruments for artist by artist."

"The Sismo Qadrox is a squarewave generator with four analog oscillators built in eight step sequencer, input to external clock, CV and sync outputs.

The audio outputs have two options, one mono by the 3/4 inch (guitar plug) and RCA stereo, split the oscillators two per each side. Front panel have nine potenciometers, is the CV sequencer (0-5 Volts) controlling the sound generator.

The potenciometer in the middle is the sequencer pitch control.The lower panel have an external clock input and the clock output, internal or external and the CV sequencer output. The one switch change completely the sound generator, increment some sweeps, noises and lfos, charge and discharge capacitors. The another switch is a sequencer reset.
