DS01 Dub Siren

DesktopAnalogMonophonic

$189

Ever wonder what gives those legendary reggae and dub tracks their spine-tingling wails? This little beast is a hand-built, second-generation clone of the most iconic dub siren ever, packing old-school transistor grit into a pint-sized desktop unit that's pure analog joy.

Fire up one of four classic tones—Sine 1 for that fat, smooth siren sweep, Sine 2 with raw bite, the auto-triggering Test Tone beep, or high-low Square wave pitch shifts—then dial in three base frequencies on the audio oscillator. Switch between three LFO speeds or flip to manual Envelope Generator mode, where dual push-button switches let you sculpt pitch by hand for ultimate control. It's got a built-in limiter to prevent clipping no matter how you crank it, 1/4-inch impedance-balanced TRS audio input and output, volume knob, and runs on 12VDC center-positive power—all squeezed into a sturdy 120 x 90 x 40mm metal chassis that's begging for your live rig.

Folks in the dub and electronic scenes can't get enough of its authentic, fatter-than-vintage sound that nails those police-siren drops without any digital fuss—super tactile and reliable for stage or studio.
