MIDI modulator for DRSSTCs

I have had the Loneoceans midi2 controller for a while. I just never got around to put it together. Now that I finally have it boxed up, you can see how that was done here. : https://highvoltageforum.net/index.php?topic=114.0

If you want your own MIDI modulator, you can buy it here: http://loneoceans.com/labs/sales/midi2/.

Here are 4 videos I recorded while testing the MIDI functionality of the controller. They were all played back on the Kaizer DRSSTC II. Which is a mini coil resonating at ~300 kHz. So it will have a preference for high notes and not so much for the bass.

Ievan Polkka

“Ievan polkka” (Savo Finnish for “Ieva‘s Polka”) is a popular Finnish song with lyrics written in the early 1930s by Eino Kettunen to a traditional Finnish polka tune.

Learn how to build your own Tesla coil and how to make it play music through a MIDI modulator that can connect a computer to your Tesla coil in order to play music from just the sparks alone. It can be a hard start to build a Tesla coil if you have no prior experience in doing so, I recommend that you watch my video on how I learned to build Tesla coils and the history of how I started by building small Tesla coils up to my very large Tesla coil that can make 4 meter long sparks and play music while doing so. Besides the guide that I have listed here above, I have also developed a good deal of tools that can help you design and check if your components can be used in a Tesla coil. It is important to stay within the physical and electrical limits of the components, else you are at great risk of damaging them due to Tesla coils pushing the components beyond their specifications in order to get the longest sparks for the least amount of money.
