Closer view of Mozart on my 1st DRSSTC (IGBT based Tesla Coil)

In this second video, I reduced the decay rate significantly. This enhanced the arc width. I also zoomed in for a closer view. This was an improvement, and only one of the many tweaks I planned for this weekend, but before the video was finished, the neighbors were beating on my door complaining that I was messing up their television. Couch potatoes..... It's time to start testing at another location. Living in suburbia can be a drag. This was inevitable anyhow because the next stage is too large to test safely indoors. This weekend I'll finish the 2nd coil, and I can't test the twins indoors due to limited space. Playing these outside would wake the neighborhood. Stay tuned for duophonic MIDI based arcs...

Hehe. My favorite part is around 2:50 where it sounded like there where two different frequencies playing at the same time. Really cool stuff.
