The CV signals from your music gear are already pulsing with the different parts and sounds of your track, so there is no need for any programming or lighting operator. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou can focus on playing your set and let ILLUMINATOR take care of the rest, creating a dynamic visual show that follows your tracks to the very last note and beat. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo presets, no memory, just your music controlling the lights. Create intense strobe effects by connecting fast hi-hats from your analog drum machine, or use slow external LFOs to create a brooding atmosphere during your ambient sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eILLUMINATOR is compatible with standard 12 V LED strips that are affordable and widely available. LED strips are flexible and usually come with adhesive on the back, so they are easy to attach to any object or surface, including irregular and unusual ones. It can be your Eurorack case, synthesizer stands, venue walls, furniture, and even your body! This way, you can create a unique light show that would otherwise require an expensive (and difficult to manage!) lighting setup. Everything you need for your ILLUMINATOR show easily fits in a small backpack for just a couple of hundred euros.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eILLUMINATOR can also power an art installation, as LED strips are far from their only application. It can drive anything that accepts 12 V DC with a current of up to 0.5 A. You can connect anything from motors and electromagnets to old-fashioned filament bulbs. It is the perfect heart for your weird steampunk mechanical orchestra. Your imagination is the only limit! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eILLUMINATOR accepts all types of CV signals in the 3 to 20-volt range. Each of the eight channels contains an individual trimmer potentiometer that defines the channel sensitivity. It not only sets the optimal input range for the connected CV sources, but it can also adjust the brightness of each LED strip. The factory setting for all potentiometers is 5V, compatible with most equipment. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBipolar CV can also be applied, but the negative part of the signal will not illuminate the LEDs (anything below zero will be processed as zero).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCV signals can be connected to the ILLUMINATOR using Eurorack mini-jacks or PULSAR-23 type plugs and alligator clips. PSU DC IN and all outputs are standard 5.5×2.1mm center-positive DC jacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SOMA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57314152579403,"sku":"ILLUMINATOR","price":344.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/0955\/7067\/files\/eas_1712_f1858b7c-7aa2-425c-a416-52dda78b7c2b.jpg?v=1779209497","url":"https:\/\/microfusa.com\/en\/products\/soma-illuminator-363300","provider":"microFusa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
