Holy Jhoomra Ganesh!
A Voltage Controlled Tabla!

I finally finished the Voltage Controlled Indian Beat Box
project along with it's other half, a Voltage controlled
Indian classical drone instrument called a Tanpura.

Check them out, (another case of "Vactrols to the rescue!")
LOL!  (and FETs, and capacitors, and all them funny little
parts!) by clicking on the words "circuit-bent".

Actually this was a very challenging project, as the
original raga beatbox had a major section encapsulated in
a slab of epoxy, (looks like an ice-cream sandwich)
and all of the chips had their part numbers sanded off
on the only visible electronics inside!
Physical mounting of everything was quite a puzzle too!

The result is a totally cool pair of new types of modules,
and I will be happy to make a few more of these for any
customers who would like further karmic enlightenment!

LOL!

Enjoy!
