Harness the Sound of Failure with Data Bender.

Data Bender is a circuit bent digital audio buffer. It 
is inspired by the ways in which audio equipment 
can fail. 

The sounds of skipping CDs, software bugs, and 
defective tape machine playback are all accessible. 
The 96kHz, 24-bit audio buffer can hold over a minute 
of stereo audio, providing a sonic canvas capable of 
infinite surprises and discovery.

Description

Module Installation

1. Make sure there is appropri-
ate space (14HP) and power 
(58mA) in your case.

2. Connect the ribbon cable to 
Aurora (see right) and to your 
power supply, matching the 
red stripe indicators.

3. Power up your case and 
ensure your modules are prop-
erly powered and operating.
