Standuino has introduced the second edition of the pi synthesizer.
2 pi has an improved sound engine, rising the bit depth from 8 to 14 bits using PWM and eliminating the 16kHz carrier frequency; new synthesis types; and whitenoise wavetable in the whitenoise edition.
The clock sequencer also now several patterns that are randomly selected by new side button. 2 pi also includes a 100% natural wool felt case and golden patching nails.
Here are a couple of demos of the Standuino 2 pi in action:
The Standuino 2 pi whitenoise edition is available in a limited edition of 50 for 170 Euro.
See the Standuino site for more information.

Pricy, but sounds very cool!
This is all very nice, looks cool, etc but come on, 170 quid. Will yeah go on outta that. 170 quid. I don’t care if its a limited edition of 1. That´s taking the pi–
call me old fashioned, but that doesn’t quite have the same visual impact on me as a Moog modular.
I like the design :). I mean: Moogs and other full-blown synths are meant for melodies etc. But the 2 pi seems to be especially interesting for drone / noise music. And many people I know there are quite happy to see unusual designs with industrial appeal..
I don’t like the design and the price even less (I think it’s justifiable, I just can’t justify the purchase for myself, unfortunately), I love the sounds it makes. I really want one. Hell, I’m even considering buying one, though I know I shouldn’t.
