"Modified WJ-Ave5 2 channel glitch video mixer. w/ Control box, a hand crafted manual & all the patch cables you'll ever need.
Note: Although I am associated with Folktek this work is unaffiliated with Folktek. This is a heavily modified two channel NTSC composite (RCA) video mixer. It still functions completely in it's original form but has an added twelve glitch effect ports PER channel, it also has two ports for wipe glitch effects. The control box gives you maximum control over your glitch effects allowing you to implement two separate audio feeds to drive the glitch visuals (all the controls on top and back) or just patch in to one of four pots to hone in on certain glitch looks. I've built a slew of these now and this is my favorite build thus far. The control box is super light weight, great for gigging, and the effect port selection features a really nice array of stable exploits. The two separate independent feeds for incoming audio is nice too because then you can do things like output a drum machine kick drum to channel A and a snare to channel B and mix between the two channels with different glitch visuals applied to each channel. It's a good look. Or you can flip a switch on the back and just use one audio feed to be shared by both channels. The audio impulse set-up features 1 RCA input for each channel, a wet/dry for each channel, 5 switches per channel, and two push buttons for each channel. I've also two outputs per each channel on the lower portion of the front panel so you can patch sound in to the pots or to other equipment.
The creative possibilities with this thing are endless.
The Ave5 is one of my favorite composite video mixers giving you a slew of handy built in effects, a superimpose layer, a variety of useful/ironic wipes and a TBC all under one roof.
This WJ has TWO modes of operation:
SOUND VISUALIZATION MODE:
By plugging a well-amplified audio signal in to the modified AVE-5 control box you can profoundly glitch the visuals in a variety of unique ways.. all in real-time. Just take a look at the videos below. This mode is good for veejays, performance artists or art installations.
VIDEO SYNTH MODE:
Without sound you can use the control box to hone in on a variety of glitch effects and looks not possible in sound visualization mode. The majority of effects are unique to the ave5's fx circuit and difficult to emulate or simulate with other video synths (LZX etc). This mode is good for post production, experimental film & masking/overlays.
Of course both modes can be combined. In fact it is encouraged.
The original physical condition of this unit is a 7.5/10. It has some light surface scratches, very faint.
This device is perfect for:
Adding a unique look to your indie tv/film/event production.
Providing you with a variety of effects you can't get with After Effects.
Live professional VJ work .
Making dubstep or chillwave music videos (ha!).
Lo-fi enthusiasts.
Inducing epilepsy.
This device was made to last. Although a device of this nature is fragile by design I have gone through great lengths to ensure that this device stands the test of time. It has been tightly assembled, designed with thought and built with solid parts.
Note: You really have to crank incoming audio to see visualizations. Just the nature of the beast. You will need a mixer with a good heaphones out or aux out to drive this beast. I use a Behringer XENYX for live use and a Mack 1402 with it at home.
Note: Unlike most circuit bent video devices this device does NOT need a TBC because it has one built in."

Music: DMX - Unstoppable Force (from the unreleased demo)
I managed to cram all of the glitch controls for the Ave5 in it's very spatially limited housing for a couple of these "switchable editions." While dope and very handy
I don't think I'll be doing that again, it's a real pain in the ass.
