That's a very interesting looking box. Every time I see of these light-beam
things, I think of the radio in Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, which, in
order to listen to one station, you had to sit perfectly and 100% still. :)

Please forward any info you get... I'm specifically curious about what range
of CV voltages this things produces.

Just saw some very brief info on the drummachine.com website for the
Frostwave SpaceBeam:

http://www.drummachine.com/frostwave/Spacebeam_f.jpg

It is an "Optical Theremin. Selectable waveform of Sine, Saw and Pulse.
Audio output as well as CV/Gate output which you can control any CV/Gate
equipped synths, effector i.e. Pitch, Cut-off Freq, Res, etc."

They are selling it for $179. I have e-mailed Frostwave for more
information.
