Eowave Ribbon synth and controller

[Gil missFlag]

Bumping this thread, no one here own this piece of gear?

I've considered buying one of these but stop short at the 'humming and hawing' stage. From what I understand, it outputs CV and gate on a stereo plug.

As for tuning, even the manual says that the pips/markings on the ribbon may not scale exactly depending on the manufacturing tolerances of the ribbon.

My main reason for not taking the plunge is that I'd like to do Ondes Martinot type sounds without dropping the large sum of cash for a French Connection (I don't believe there are any working Ondes left that wouldn't cost in the five figures now). I'm just not sure this is the right tool for the job.

Eigenharp?

Eigenharp's a possibility but it's also approaching French Connection money. That, and I believe it needs to be tethered to a Mac (or is that just the smaller version?).

It depends on which Eigenharp you buy.

The Pico is not that expensive, at least I got mine for around 350 euros used, and I think it's still pretty cool.

The Eigenharp is cool but not really what I'm looking for.

I've ended up ordering this instead, should get mine around November. Excited! :D
