4ms - Mini Noise Swash


I bought a kit from 4ms for my last birthday. The delivery was delayed for a long time by the post office. When it arrived I soldered it all together and found it wasn't working. It wasn't showing any symptoms in common with those that had been dealt with on their forum - I was feeling down about it. My friend C. Baird helped me identify two school boy errors in my handy work. It now works. It is pleasingly filthy. I now want a fully formed Noise Swash CV Max Tweaker.

Don't Touch That Dial




Here's a tumblr worth visiting more than once: Old fashioned and beautiful. The range of different types of sound quality is charming. You can make quite a sound-clash by strategically using the play/pause buttons on several clips at a time.

Of their content they say:
"All programs are considered to be in Public Domain unless noted otherwise."

Their 'Random Program' button can lead in interesting directions.


From MeFi:
"...is a simple tumblr that collects radio shows and advertisements now in the public domain. The archive is pretty great..."
