Tiny fragments of everyday sound become warped, spooky loops with Reverse The Curse, a lo-fi audio recording gadget from BrandNewNoise. This handmade wooden tabletop box turns quick voice clips, found sounds, and musical phrases into characterful textures you can bend, reverse, and repeat.
Its built-in microphone captures audio at the touch of a button, while pitch control, delay, reverse playback, and a continuous loop switch reshape each recording. Holding the red record button during playback turns the white fader into a scrub control for scratching through the captured sound. A 1/8-inch stereo output connects the $175 device to an audio interface, mixer, or effects chain.
