Error Instruments Introduces Solar Installation “Music Box From The Future” Futuristic Music Box
Error Instruments today has introduced the Solar Installation, an experimental synthesizer that they describe as ‘a bridge between art, sound, and technology.’
At its core lies a patch bay that opens up endless sonic possibilities. By experimenting with its connections, you can discover countless ‘sweet spots’ where unexpected textures and tones emerge.
An integrated effects processor lets you transform these tones even further, adding lo-fi echoes, delays, and atmospheric modulations.

Solar Installation features dual-mode oscillators. Each of the four oscillators can be controlled in two unique ways:
- Precision Mode – using traditional potentiometers for accurate, tactile manipulation.
- Light Interaction Mode – using highly sensitive light sensors that respond to movement and changes in illumination.
This makes the instrument behave like an interactive installation. By positioning it in different lighting environments or allowing natural shadows to play across its sensors, the sounds it generates evolve on its own, creating ever-changing, generative music.
An example of the Solar Installation in action:
