The 555 Punk Console is a software-simulation based on the "Stepped-Tone Generator" circuit originally designed by Forrest M. Mims III; a favorite among experimental musicians and noise-enthusiasts! This simulator introduces a few minor modifications to the original circuit to facilitate a slightly wider range of sonic possibilities (see app info page for specifics).

Controls available in this initial release include:
-On/Off Toggle (lower-right)
-Volume Knob (small black knob - lower-left)
-Astable Oscillator Pitch Control (large black knob - left)
-Monostable "Step" Control (large black knob - right)
-Info / Schematic Page (accessed via the input jack icon - upper right)

If you are interested in learning more about the 555 Timer and its utility for electronic music making, you can also check out a free and simplified educational version of this app within the App Store entitled: "555 Synthesizer." Both apps generate similar square-wave tones, but the 555 Punk Console simulates extra electronic components in order to generate stepped overtones.
