I want some informations of The Laserharp:

1-The laserharp is pressure-sensitive? (little tonal-variation on Rendez-vous 2)
2-The laser beams are color-variable? (multi-colored lasers!!!!)
3-Someone have some DIY project? (I want one!!!! :peacemaan: :peacemaan: :peacemaan: )

1: No
2: You can use every laser-color you want :P
3: yeah, I have some DIY-ideas, but I don't have the time/experience/money yet to build one :P

The British Jarre tribute band Jarrelook built one themselves.


The tonal variation on RV2 is most probably the synth setting than the laser harp, there could be an LFO acting on some part of the voice.

As is the pitchbend of laserharp is controlled? Is possible control remotely? Or only in the synthesizer? Because it's only a few of lasers, only some notes can be played...

I would use a patchbay for that. (well, as it is in my blueprints. I didn't build one yet, so I can't tell if it works in real) :)

You can connect for example 8 beams to 8 notes on a 25 note-mididevice.

Yes. I can draw anything as well :P And I have plenty of theories too... :mrgreen:

Still, bending pitches using a patchbay will require some kind of magic.. :punch: Buster!
