The Dirty Electronics Mute Synth II (MSII), is a hand-held synth and sequencer designed in collaboration with the designer and writer, Adrian Shaughnessy. The MSII follows the first Dirty Electronics Mute Synth (MSI), originally created for the legendary Short Circuit presents Mute event at the Roundhouse in 2011.
 
MSII’s elegant design and focus on usability pushes through a pick-up-and-play approach, with switches and knobs, in conjunction with the touch controls inherent in the MSI, to enable complex and infinite rhythms and sounds to be created simply.

Mute Synth II comes with a selection of works created using the synth by artists associated with Dirty Electronics and Mute. 
This sampler of short clips features some of those artists: Chris Carter - Mute MSII / Simon Fisher Turner - Shoelife / Kidkanevil - i went to an electricity museum / Dominic Butler - FH Exclusion / Dirty Electronics - 5 Episodes
