"Vintage Marsona 1200 sleep aid device. This unit is actually an analog white noise generator, such as you would find on many old analog synthesizers. The white noise is modulated to simulate rain, waterfalls, and surf. There is a knob to select between these sounds, as well as knobs to change the surf rate, surf range, tone, and volume. There is an onboard speaker, or the sound can be amplified (or run into effects pedals) through the 1/4"output. Everything is in perfect working order and the power cord is intact. This would make a nice addition to any drone/noise musician's rig, or it can help you catch some Z's."
Looks like something by danmcp or devowski.
My friend and I have found these at thrift stores. They sound great--very dirty (yet relaxing).
ReplyDeletei love my marsona.
ReplyDeletei've had one sitting in me pile of old toys found in thrift stores, but not yet built a proper power supply for it. probably will when i get a modular started, and of course add sound demos ;)
ReplyDeleteAnyone have one for sale? (Marsona 1200 Analog). I'm willing to pay handsomely for my peace of mind.
ReplyDeleteVincent

ReplyDeleteWhere did you place the bends, and to what effect?
DeleteI have a Marsona 1200 and one of the wires is disconnected... It's one of the two red ones coming off the power transformer. Anyone have a picture of the guts I could see so I can fix mine? email me at anewstatic@yahoo.com
