OT - Alternative controllers

2001-03-09 by ivancu@aol.com

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.

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.
