Audible Disease Dementia DM-1 Noise Synth

via this Analogue Haven auction

"The dementia dm-1 from audible disease is a super mega noise synth designed to inject a new chaotic sound palate into your setup. this thing is just non-stop noise! it starts with a glitchy two-oscillator synth signal. the gain of the synth signal can be adjusted then further processed through another adjustable oscillation filter. after that, a set amount of white noise can be introduced into the signal. just to add to the fun, another control allows you to starve a bit of power to some of the circuit creating sputtering, coughing dying sounds. operates with a standard 9-volt dc negative tip barrel type power adapter only (sold separately)."
