I present to you,  WSG Treacle Bomb.   ( probably not quite airport  
safe :D )

based on the first edition of the Ray Wilson WeirdSoundGenerator on  
http://www.musicfromouterspace.com,
probably just enough room there to fit the extra mods for the newer  
version, oh and some flashing lights, it needs some of those too :)

Soon to be accompanied by a nice little pre-amp/speaker combo using  
same casing :)


the sharp eyed among you may notice the controller knobs are actually  
the sleeve from some of those gold coloured rca plugs,
these are sandwiched against standard 6m pot shafts with mic cable  
outer sleeve to create a fairly tight fit ( which can also be glued  
with sealant for some extra security )

Advantages are:  much cheaper than most metal based knobs, and a nice  
small size to fit in tighter spaces.


This version has already found use for soundfx and music in our new  
game Airburst, soon to arrive on XBox Live Arcade.  I'll be writing  
up some more info on its use and other synths used on our website soon.

Thanks also to Ray for putting up an awesome little sound box :)

Cheers,
Adam.
