Born from a love of broken signals and beautiful chaos, this compact desktop box is built to celebrate everything conventional synths try to avoid. The AW noise maker is a fully analog, non-idiomatic instrument: it does not care about scales, chords, or tight song structures, only about raw, unstable noise and evolving drones that feel more like tuning into a dying transmission than playing a “proper” synthesizer. It is intentionally based on poor signal-to-noise ratio behaviors and glitch aesthetics, inviting you to experience sound rather than control it.
With just a handful of controls, the AW noise maker stays deliberately unpredictable. A button shuffles the tones it generates, another freezes a fleeting fragment into a short looping moment, while the two knobs steer filtering, LFO speed, and a set of random effects that change with every power-up, so their exact behavior is never the same twice. Powered over USB‑C and feeding your rig through a mini‑jack output, it offers four dedicated modes—including momentum, rhythm, and drone—to move from sputtering bursts to hypnotic walls of sound. A glitchy, reactive display mirrors the sonic instability with erratic visuals, turning each session into a small audiovisual ritual of entropy, meditation, and sweetly absurd aural troublemaking.
