Chaos NAND Handheld DIY Kit – 3 NAND Oscillators Drone Synth for Unique Sound Exploration 🎛️🎶

Unleash Sonic Chaos with the Chaos NAND Drone Synth Kit 🔊✨

Step into the fascinating world of DIY sound synthesis with the Chaos NAND Handheld DIY Kit. This compact, easy-to-build synth offers three NAND oscillators and a volume control, giving you a playground of sonic possibilities—from eerie low drones to sharp laser blasts and unpredictable robotic noises. 🤖⚡ Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned sound explorer, this kit makes diving into electronic sound design fun and accessible!

Equipped with intuitive controls like on/off switches for the gating oscillators and a power toggle for explosive dive bomb effects, this handheld synth invites you to experiment endlessly. Plus, with the CV SAG input, you can connect external sequencers, envelopes, or LFOs for even more dynamic sound shaping. 🎛️🎵

DIY Sound Synthesis Made Simple and Exciting 🎉🔧

Designed with novices in mind, the Chaos NAND synth kit comes with a PCB measuring 83x53mm, perfectly sized for handheld use. Building your synth is straightforward and rewarding, offering a hands-on introduction to electronic music creation. 💡🛠️ The kit runs on a standard 9V battery or center-negative power supply (not included), so you can quickly power up and start crafting sounds.

With four knobs and three switches, you have ultimate control over your sonic experiments:

• Pitch Control: Sculpt the final output sound from deep drones to piercing tones.
• Volume Control: Adjust your output level to match any setup.
• On/Off Switches for Gating Oscillators: Turn individual oscillators on or off to create layered or minimal soundscapes.
• Power Switch: Activate the dive bomb/laser effect by toggling the power, letting the circuit discharge voltage creatively.

Explore Advanced Modulation with CV SAG Input 🎚️🎛️

One of the standout features is the CV SAG input, which allows external control voltages up to 12V to power the entire circuit. Plug in sequencers, LFOs, or envelopes to modulate pitch and volume dynamically—opening the door to chaotic, evolving soundscapes you didn’t think possible. 🌌🔄

The CV switch lets you toggle between external CV power or battery supply, so you can experiment freely with different voltage sources and their effects on the synth’s behavior. ⚡🔀
