u make dat pweshush sing!

Check out the ringing when you get kicks! This is the part of the wave that produces the overmodulating feedback for the ring...

The kick sends the amplifier into overmodulation immediately. The rings exacerbate the process. No ramp up time like regular instrument / amplifer pairing.

--giantkiller. Very, very cool.

Hey GK & All,

I am not up to speed with some of you here, but I do make questing for knowledge by my own hand a part of my every day.

Here I mixed together a 9V, 555 w/ 1M-pot frq-ctrl, 50k-pot pls-wth-ctrl & 0.1 MF cap, 1000MF cap, Tesla flat bifilar coil, 1/4" neo-mag, soda closure, and oscilloscope.  See and hear the magnet buzz on the video attached here.

When I turn the magnet over on a particular face I hear a high pitched squeal.  (No video attached.)

This is nothing close to Moab's "neonado" magnet tornado show.  I am just exploring my abilities and sharing my progress, or lack thereof.

Rosphere--it's all good! 


UPDATE: With this video I soldered-out the 0.1 MF cap on the timer board and replaced it with a 1 MF cap to get down into the single digit Hz range.  Then I replaced the neo-magnet with a compass and fiddled with my 555 knobs until the compass dial began to oscillate.  I watched it precess slowly all the way around the dial at a rate of one revolution in thirty seconds.  A video is attached for those interested.

I also deleted the two close-ups images because there is sufficient detail is in the first picture and the sizes are not small.

Great shots and impeccable neatness.

Any results are good.
