Make Noise is partnering with Lamplight AVL to raffle off a QMMG! This is an incredible opportunity to get this rare signed instrument, all while supporting a radical effort to support and stabilize artists who have been deeply affected by Hurricane Helene. 

Raffle tickets are just $10! The more tickets you purchase, the greater your chance at winning this unique instrument! The raffle will run through December 23rd at 5:00 PM ET. 

All purchases of raffle tickets will support Lamplight's AVL's fundraising for phase 2 of their Helene Recovery program. Phase 2, Art Remains, will offer grants of up to $20,000 to Asheville area artists, collectives, and organizations. These grants offer foundational, longer term stabilization to “community connectors” that serve as hubs with wide ripple effects. Lamplight AVL is raising $100,000 to support this effort. 

About the Quad Multi-Mode Gate:

The Quad Multi-Mode Gate is a huge riff on the original Buchla 292 Quad Lo-Pass Gate, including a Mix Out and all of the original feature set. The QMMG offers additionally: HiPass mode, Voltage Controlled Feedback, Direct Coupling and Normalizations so that multiple channels may easily be used together to create Bandpass Gates, steeper HP, BP or LP Filters, or even something like a traditional Synthesizer Voice Architecture.

The QMMG contains no fewer than 8 Vactrols!

Like the 2018 reissue, the mode switching is done via analog pots instead of rotary switches, and the bottom board contains reverse power protection circuitry.
