Cracklebox FAQ

Q1: Does the Cracklebox come with a power supply?
A1: No. The principle of the Cracklebox is that it is standalone, so it is battery operated (it comes with a 9V battery). Secondly, when you play it you become part of the circuitry, so it might also be dangerous to connect it to higher voltage sources. That is the reason why we advise strongly against attempting to build in a power supply into a Cracklebox.

Q2: Does the Cracklebox come with an audio output connection?
A2: No. Again, the principle of the Cracklebox is its independency of any other hardware, its potential to generate sound with touch, without any expensive or elaborate audio system. And again, by connecting the Cracklebox to a device (i.e. a mixer) that is connected to the power grid is potentially dangerous.

Q3: Can I hear some sounds produced by the Cracklebox?
A3: Yes you can. Go to http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/ and search for cracklebox.
