Blackdeath Plague synth

"This is to show off my base modification I have added to the Blackdeath. The BlkDth in both versions does not come attached to a base, nor are there mounting holes in the circuit board to mount it. I asked Martin if it was OK to do this before I went ahead and performed surgery on it, I stayed clear of any circuitry. Three holes in the board, three plastic standoffs mounted to a custom cut aluminum plate, and the BlkDth secured to this assembly. The aluminum plate has the mount screws recessed underneath and is covered with a black foam mat. The top of the alum. plate visible underneath the BlkDth has been custom dyed and clearcoated to look like a plague scope smear. Custom knobs top off the piece, I did this work a few months ago but broke it out to play with in anticipation of the upcoming Dark Interpreter series.

Talk program on shortwave radio pumped through both the Blackdeath and the Modcan dual frequency shifter, separate audio tracks into the mixer. Korg ES-1 mkII additional beats.

This is noisy and chaotic stuff, you have been warned."
