MFOS Weird Sound Generator WSG Analog Synthesizer Synth - LamayMusic

Cool rainbow knobs.

"Listed is a Music From Outer Space (MFOS) WSG analog synthesizer designed by Ray Wilson.

NEWLY BUILT AND TESTED, ready to start making beautiful music (or noise).
Professionally hand-built (all by me [LamayMusic]).

This WSG is AC Powered and includes an AC adapter.
Saves a bit of money and waste by not going through the batteries.

This Weird Sound Generator has the CV mods to control Weird Freq A and B (each with separate CV 1/4 in) along with 1 CV for the filter cutoff.
These CV mods add a nice way to give the WSG more melodic potential.
The WSG can be used alone or by the CV (15 volt max, ie 1 volt per oct) and Gate inputs.

Plenty of REAL knob twisting switch flicking fun for the money!!!

All WSGs are not created equal!!! My Synths are not your 'typical' looking home built units. These are high quality, built with care and very professional.

Metal film resistors and high quality components (Sourced from Mouser Electronics) used through out.
Quality pots for a nice smooth turning action.
Circuit Board (Direct from MFOS) is mounted to case via aluminum stand-offs.
WSG dimensions are approx. 9 x 6 x 3"
