Make Noise no longer makes the Phonogene.

What's new in 372h

Note: All new PHONOGENEs shipped after July 2013 are loaded with firmware v.372h. This update includes the following improvements: » Improved Audio Fidelity » Improved Vari-Speed response (shorter scale, greater resolution) » End of Gene Pulse (EOS outputs pulses for both Splices and Genes, turn up Gene Size to see this in action) To enter Broken Echo Mode: First, record some audio to memory. For example, with nothing in the input, [Press] the REC Button in order to record silence to the buffer. Next, [press and hold] REC button until you pass End Of Splice (EOS LED Flashes). The effect is not unlike cutting a loop on a tape recorder and allowing it to be recorded over and over again, without erasing the previous recordings. This is a great mode for building walls of sound, drones or making crude echo FX. » PHONOGENE still minds Splices and Vari-Speed, Gene Size, Shift, and Slide functions. Any modulation of these parameters are recorded. Be sure to set the Mix control according to your desired results. For example, live input processing requires the Mix to be set at around 50%, while massaging content that has been captured needs Mix set to 100% Wet. However, adding or removing splices during Broken Echo Mode is not supported.
