atari punk console has three settings: bleep, bloop and loud

For those of you unfamiliar with the concept of the Atari Punk Console (APCs), they’re analog noisemakers that offer up sounds that are reminiscent of the old square-wave bleeps and bloops of the classic Atari 2600 video game system.

There are tons of APCs floating around the webiverse, but this one I spotted today is my new favorite. Featuring a minimal metal and wood case, and three simple knobs labeled “BLEEP”, “BLOOP and “LOUD”, it’s the perfect addition to any electronic musician’s collection of instruments.

This particular gem was created by Anko over at The Munkey Shop, and can be found on his Etsy shop for just $45 (USD).
