Just bought one of these, not here yet. Anyone have some experience with one or some feedback?

It's a hand made synth from Peru.

I would buy one only if I can control frozen mummies with it.

how delightful!
googling the thread title brought up nothing, though.

How did you find out about this??

Well I bought a similar thing; a Zebranalogic noise-box from these crazy Peruvians.
If you were the sort who judged all Peruvians on their synth-making skills, I'd say watch out for dodgy switches not being soldered to the circuit-board very well. After a bit of a good fiddle with mine, a couple of the switches snapped clean off.
Apart from that though, it was a great bit of noisy fun. This does look a bit more solid than the Zebranalogic though.

Here's a little mp3 demo "Zebras on Smack" of my favourite noodlings on the box. Yours should be able to do that and more I assume.

I just received one of these and it's awesome. I am kind of having a hard time understanding why there's not an LED diffuser type thingymajig over the lights. They are awfully bright. Like, blinding bright. Using this thing in the dark just isn't plausible. I think using some scotch tape of some sort will work effectively. It's definitely fun to sync up with a 101.

The cool thing is the price and the half-way decent analog sequencer that comes along with it.

Really, if Alfredo does something about the LEDs for the sake of our eyes, it'll be definitely a winning random noise box.

The "authentically faded" artwork is great too on the cover. I don't know if he does each one different, but it really reminds me of a 2D amazon rainforest nintendo game, or something, totally 8bit looking, although analogue in the sound creation.

There's a post up on Matrixsynth about Zebranalogic:

Apparently they are getting ready to introduce some new products. I would have sworn that I read somewhere that Edwardo, their product designer, moved to Sweden, but I can't find it now.
