Altered State Machines

Altered State Machines Logo

Hello and thank you for looking at my products.

I am a synth nerd with a passion for designing new ways to use my gear. From the moment I brought my first dead synth back to life I knew I wanted to learn all there is to know about synthesizer design. These products are the results of my ongoing quest to do so.

I am a electronics engineering technician by training, and my designs are backed by a one year warranty, so buy with confidence.
