Funny little drone-synth.

Nice synth, the sound is not that big but it's great fun to play with. It's a open DIY project but elettrorama builds them in their self made case. Which is plastic. Not that durable (it broke, because of plastic screws, while falling on my carpet!), can't take a beating. 4 Oscis, filter is not that resonant.
