MSII is designed in collaboration with the designer and writer, Adrian Shaughnessy.
Mute Synth II is a statement against MPEG culture and places an onus on an active participant rather than passive consumer and has been born out of Dirty Electronics’ ongoing commitment to DIY approaches and noise aesthetics, and serves as a catalyst for experimenting with electronic sound.
Additional modules and add-ons make the MSII customisable and scalable.
Packaged with a booklet containing simple and clear instructions, diagrams and essays, the MSII opens-up usability to not only the synth aficionado, but also an untrained enthusiast.
