The Sound of Abstracts

Published on Mar 17, 2020 Neon Captain

"We call the Radiator a Laser Synthesizer because it embodies traditional synthesizer philosophies. Of course we've optimized it to make beautiful images and animations, but its heart beats at audio frequencies and we've included an audio out jack so you can listen to the signals that generate the magic."

Access Virus Indigo With Gib Bag Case & Cables

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This Virus Indigo is in very good condition and working well. All controls have great feel and respond accurately. All lights and screen fully functional. All ports and jacks in great shape and connect without issue. Sound is strong and clear from all inputs and stereo outputs.

Two things of note:

1. The low F key (fourth from left) is sluggish. It wasn’t working at all, but we removed the keybed and cleaned the contacts until it worked perfectly. However, after reassembly, it still works but requires a harder press and can be a little inconsistent. All other keys works great.

2. The headphone output produces strong, clear sound but there is also a continuous white noise. This noise is much quieter than the actual musical sound produced by the synth, but is definitely noticeable. All other outputs sound great, no noise we could detect.

Sale includes the synth with a rare official Virus carry case, power cord, printed 3.0 software update manual, and a set of HOSA 10’ dual TRS cables."
