Koma Elektronik Field Kit-Electro Acoustic Workstation

Koma Elektronik Field Kit-Electro Acoustic Workstation Product Details

Description

The new KOMA Elektronik Field Kit is the perfect tool for everyone who would like to experiment with electro acoustic sound.

The Field Kit is optimized to process signals from microphones, contact microphones, electromagnetic pickups and able to run DC motors and solenoids. On top of that it can receive radio signals and convert signals from switches and sensors into control voltage!

The Field Kit boasts 7 separate functional blocks all focussed on receiving or generating all types of signals. They are designed to operate together as a coherent electroacoustic workstation or alternatively together with other pieces of music electronics with the ability to use control voltage signals.

The DC Interface can be used together with PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)- or Pulse-controlled devices. An example of a PWM-controlled device is a DC-motor of which the rotation speed can be set by varying the pulse width. A Pulse-controlled device can be a solenoid-motor whose impulse strength/distance can be set with the length of the control pulse. Other devices that can be used together with the DC Interface could be computer fans, LEDs, relay switches, etc.

Features:

• Four Channel Mixer with individual Gain, Mix Level and Tone control over each channel and individual Master- and Aux sub-mixes
• the mixer can be used very well for feedback mixing and no-input mixing as well
• CV Radio is a CV-controllable radio receiver capable of receiving radio frequencies on AM/FM and SW bands
• catches electromagnetic waves for further processing inside the Field Kit
• the frequency of the radio can be set with a dedicated multifunctional Search-control
• the Field Kit comes with three connectors to attach needed antenna’s for both FM and SW bands and a loop antenna connector for AM signals
• applies two functions to the waveform you send to the input: full-wave rectification and low-pass filtering
• the Low Frequency Oscillator generates periodically varying voltages to be used as control signals
• DC Interface: use output voltages to run little motors, fans, solenoids, buzzers and control them with control voltage signals
