Hnadheld synth!

Yesm that's right, my 3 oscillator handheld Squarewave synthesizer is BUILT, and running! The oscillators are essentially the sound of a Hex Schmitt trigger constantly forced to disagree with itself, rendering a squarewave.

The Thumping Double Squaresnakes (prototype) will get it's first torture test onstage with The Electric West on May 4.

"Wheres ur demo?"

It's not some stupid feedback thing is it? It actually makes musical sounds?

Your mother makes musical sounds.

WHEN IM FUCKING HER

But yeah, you can go either way with this thing, although it'd be tough to do any covers, cause you tune it with pots rather than hitting keys.

I played it osme more last night, I think I'm going to have to add a master volume on the next one. The output is so gigantic it often confuses pedals. I had to turn the Fuzz Factory all the way up to get much of a boost.

When I cut back in (originally) i said "It was my wife, can you believe it?"

But the import got screwwed up, and I was in too much of a hurry. Glad it was still funny.

NOt as funny as the upcoming Squier Jagmaster Demo.
