Step into a dimension of sound where the rules of harmony and rhythm are rewritten with the Discomfort Designs TMA-1 (or Jupiter: and Beyond the Infinite). At its heart, two feral transformers battle for dominance, wrangling a PLL tone decoder into submission. This core creates an otherworldly ring-modulator-on-ring-modulator effect, birthing a cacophony of lo-fi grit, pulsating chaos, and interstellar screams. The Anomaly knob sets the tone, shaping the carrier frequency from dirt-drenched drones to frenzied, rhythmic Martian dissonance. Every twist is a journey into uncharted auditory realms.
With its Lux/Aeterna switch, the Supercollider doubles its carrier frequency and switches from analog carrier modulation to input-signal-driven madness for faster, sharper, and brighter tones. The versatile mixer section allows you to sculpt your sound with precision, offering independent control over effect level, clean signal, and a customizable blend. Whether you're crafting immersive textures, brutal glitches, or shimmering harmonic layers, the TMA-1 from Discomfort Designs is your ticket to exploring the outer limits of sonic possibility.
