Thanks - this one is going to be MIDI modulated so it will need a microcontroller.
Over the next 20 years I'll be building the world's first full size Tesla organ, think church organ pipes, but Tesla coils instead...
Toccata and Fugue, anyone?
;-)
(Ok maybe I'll stop after about 6)

Subject: Re: [TCML] Audio Modulating a DRSSTC
Correct. Instead of a regular interrupter you would put a modulator in it's
place. Basically what you have to do is modulate the square wave that is
going into the controller with audio while still keeping the bps
controllable. I am sure you can whip something up with a opamp like a lm311
and some logic but people like Steve Ward have settled with microcontrollers
and they have had great success.

Does anyone have information on how to audio modulate a DRSSTC?
It looks like it's the interrupter that should be modulated - can anyone
confirm this?
