MAGNETAR, distortion synthesizer

See this previous post for an additional demo and details.

"Magnetar is a dual distortion synthesizer featuring distortion, fuzz (connected in series), equalization/feedback, delay, and LFO. However, the capabilities of this synth go far beyond a simple sound processor. It can generate incredible sounds without any input, simply by tweaking the controls to create unpredictable sounds, perfect for drone, ambient, noise, and more. You can see it in action in the video. It's highly recommended to read the manual carefully, as the synth is very sensitive to input level changes. The level pots not only control the levels but also produce unique textures and intriguing sound variations.
The Magnetar combines a distortion and a fuzz connected in series. The output of the fuzz is connected to a delay, which is then routed to the output. The LFO modulates the delay's time parameter (GIG).

Signal Chain: IN + DISTORTION + FUZZ + DELAY + OUT EQ + FB LFO
