"Available here is the one-and-only Metasonix TM-1 vacuum tube waveshaper, ringmod, and distortion pedal/desk top signal processor in excellent condition. Metasonix have built their reputation on the uniqueness of their products and this pedal is a fine example. You simply will not hear other signal processors create a similar flavor of squelchy, gritty, nasty, obnoxious, scrunchy, squealy, boisterous sounds that this unit can do. It uses vacuum tubes in a totally original way. But despite the noisiness of it's character it's still very alluring to listen to. It's got an organic feel to the distortion (for lack of a better term).
The TM-1 is one of the early model pedals and is extremely difficult to come by these days. It's rapidly becoming a collector's item. I bought this one second hand from Analogue Haven years ago and it has lived on the desktop in my smoke free home studio ever since. This particular unit does have four tiny screw holes in the front corners of the case that can be seen in the pictures. I don't know what their purpose was but they don't effect the usability of the pedal in any way...
From the manufacturer:
"VERY WEIRD AND WONDERFUL ! " is how one of our customers described this unit. If you are the type who likes things that are different , the Metasonix TM-1 may be just what you have been searching for. With its all vacuum tube circuit, there is no mistaking the sound of the TM-1 with any other device.
Metasonix took the basic circuit of their award-winning TS-21 Hellfire Modulator, and added the world's first vacuum tube audio ring modulator. The result is a new sound-effects device in a small, economical package. The sound is totally unique, powerful and distinctive. Use it as a stand-alone effects box, or mount it in a modular synth with the optional TM-D or TM-M kit.
The pentode preamp gives gain and distortion; the pulser injects small pulses on top of the signal; and the beam tube gives both wavefolding and ring modulation (carrier provided by an internal wide-range oscillator, or inject your own carrier signal). The TM-1 can also be used as a self-contained pseudorandom signal generator, by patching its output back to its input. You've read about "strange attractors" and other chaotic sound generation techniques? The TM-1 is the first all-tube chaotic sound generator. The results must be heard to be believed!
Frequency response: less than 10 Hz to greater than 40 kHz
Distortion: from less than 0.1% to 100%, depending on control settings and input waveform
Hum and noise: less than 0.5 mV
Power input: 10 - 12 volts AC, 50/60 Hz, 0.8 amp at idle
Inputs: phone jacks for audio input; optional inputs for beam-tube CV, VCA CV, and ring-modulator external carrier (requires at least 20v p-p signal for full effect)Output: audio (mono)
Dimensions: 7 1/2" (192mm) x 4 3/8" (112mm) x 3" (77mm)
Weight (not including accessories): 5 pounds (2.2 kg)"

"Original song by Pixies, 'Fight club' OST.
Cover song performed live by Gianni Proietti a.k.a. Gattobus using an eurorack modular synthesizer.
I played the bass part with my left hand (on the Flame Tame machine mini keyboard module) and the lead with the right hand on the Doepfer Ribbon controller R2M.
All performed in real time while I was singing.
I hope you like it ;-)"

Demonstração Moog Little Phatty #1 - #4 & With Delay
Published on Dec 28, 2012 synthway·6 videos
"Esse é o primeiro vídeo/demonstração que fiz. Mostro algumas características do Moog Little Phatty enquanto improviso sobre uma mesma escala. Nada muito musical, mas acho que mostra um pouco do que esse sintetizador é capaz quando se trata de sons graves.
Visite http://synthway.wordpress.com para um review completo do equipamento."
