The Wireless Bug features my first wireless patch system controlling a multitude of parameters through four primary patchable knobs. Each of the eight lugs can be set on any of twelve positions, routed through the main controls and providing extreme sensitivity over the highly chaotic circuit.

This allows you to determine function and provides tons of flexibility. In addition, There's are three more knobs (global control, volume and power kill), power indicator lamp glows blue, custom pushbutton/switch activate and freeze/mode sections, reset, 1/4" output, included AC adapter, basic manual of function and layout. You'll be able to cipher through waveform and textures with extreme sensitivity in thousands of ways. Waveforms (individual, or multiple layers) can be captured and maintained, often intermodulating in beautiful and/or disturbing ways. Albums are waiting to be created here as the sound is quite different from anything else you'll find.

I'm also working on a sequencer now which will potentially be the perfect addition to the patchable synth...The buyer should check up.

There are 2 switch button combos that are the primary activate and wave lock controls. One is intended to activate waves either as a button or a switch, the other to capture waves or change the mode. Once a wave is captured there is a button that will allow you to cipher through new waves at random.

This is one of the more extensive pieces created within this series.

The box is custom hardwood.

Here are some sounds of another piece within this series...This work is capable of the same sounds. There are also many more recordings of works within this series...Go to the melanogaster family to sort through them if you feel like it: http://ariusblaze.com/soundart

otherwise, just have a listen here - you'll get the idea:

pendulum1

pendulum2

pendulum3

pendulum4

You can cipher through our videos also. We have several works within the same series presented - this piece is capable of all of those sounds and hours upon hours more.
