You might want to do a search for "Novachord Video" - this is a presentation of a partially restored 72 year old Novachord in action - a 1/4 ton, 163 tube monster with 72 note polyphony, a VCA on every key with central ADR envelope control, filters and a 6 channel vibrato system - it cost $1850 in 1939
Hi, Jerry AG! Impressive... I have an own radio show for Indian Electronics ( w w w . imcradio . net / electronics ) and actually preparing a show about Electronics in germany.... so I feel over all this material of Trautonium, Oskar Sala, Harald Genzmer. You write, that you sold it.... Do you know how many Trautoniums came onto the market ? - Ciao from Europe/North Germany, Hamburg... - ElJay.
This thing has a great sound. But I really wish someone would upload a video where they actually play a song on it. All of the videos of weird electronic instruments (except theremin) are just people making playing random tones.
You don't know how to play it really, do you? That sounds like a boy playing with one of the horns of FL Studio hahaha sorry, but it is what I think. That instrument has much more potential than this
No, there s no keyboard. The trautonium is one of worlds first electronical music instruments, invented in the early 1920s by Dr. Max Trautwein. It works with sites - very near to that ones uses e.g. in electrical quitars. Lot of experts see the Trautonium as the initial for the (Moog) Synthesizer.
Reminds me of the oscillator circuit from a Radio Shack "Science Fair" Electronics Project Kit....
