Cosmic Blooper FM Synth



via this auction

"This is a Cosmic Blooper synth built on an IBM PS2 platform. Basically, there's a program on the hard drive of this computer that allows you to sequence a bunch of FM sounds that are inside the computer. You can change the sounds and do lots of modifications to them during the sequence. When you turn the computer on, it boots up and a prompt comes up. You type in FMKING.EXE and you're off. As you can see in the pics, I wrote a few symbols on the keyboard. There is usually a guide on screen that tells you what keys to push for different functions, but I Sharpied a few of the important ones on the keyboard for simplicity. This thing is fun and warped and works well and sounds great as you can hear in the clip." I couldn't find the clip. If anyone can,leave a comment and I'll update the post with it."

Update via Stamba in the comments:

"Well.. everybody can build it as it's only a software you can DL here http://www.kolumbus.fi/sami.wilenius/fmking.htm

You just need a PC under DOS sytem and adlib, sb or sb pro-compatible sound card.

It evens works with dosdox !
