"This is an all original un-modified ARP 2600P with 3604P keyboard. This model has the pre-lawsuit 4012 moog low pass filter [note there was never a lawsuit]
This is the approx weight and dimensions of box 2600 - 45 lbs - 14"x24"x38" 3604P - 26 lbs. - 14"x10"x40""

"Add a Pro-Rythm D2 drum synth thing, an old 1940's tube test box, a Dauz pad and a cheap First Act delay pedal (plus some tweaking)... and you have: Der Spacebox. Not pretty, like most of my crap, and not exactly original, I just wanted a space-drum clone but with more features in a not-so-tidy package. Rustic improvements include real apple branches as build tiers, clothespins to keep wires from getting yanked too far from the holes in the box, and frustrated cursing because the "engineering," of this thing renders it moody at the slightest touch-- yet you're supposed to bang on it. Dauz pad is not actually hooked up, it's just a place to beat the box to trigger the internal contact (compression?) microphone. Though the Dauz pad would happily hook up to something else to play in tandem. I am not a drummer. I just wanted noise. Take that, Internet."
A try at a new interest. This whole "circuit bending," hooplah. Okay, fine.
This Casiotone MT-40 keyboard had something spilled in it long ago by a roommate, who then gave it to me. It sounded awful. So it was begging to be tortured.
Now it tortures ears. (No vintage whores chastising me for ruining it. Shhh.) A combination of manual and auto modes, crosswired push-switches and toggles, and "The Nipple." Made from a steering-column lock bolt from a 1978 Toyota corolla, it is a touch-sensitive digalog pitch-bender of sorts. It also makes the poor White Nightmare hate life and complain when you use certain buttons in conjunction with it. Which, requires a restart once in a while.
I discover new ear-bleeding effects with just the six additions every day! Cosmetically its a sad-ass project. Audibly it is schizophrenic.
It will be used on stage, most likely as an analog noise generator, and fill-in box. Hope you like The White Nightmare, named after the butt-rocker era from whence it came."

"A lot of people asked me when I upgraded The White Nightmare, to post a video. Well, it happened. I did the extra filter bends with a blue knob, and a couple of main-keys glitch switches about six months ago. Procrastinate much? Not I! Same fun as the original White Nightmare, but now with new ear-splitting rage."

"This video shows how to use regular modules to achieve boolean logic, that is AND/OR and stuff like that. I even get an XOR in the end but I get the explanation a bit confused. If you need more details email me niklas@7thdan.com"
