   So I've been building a 100% analog polyphonic synthesizer with an unique twist. To use only vacuum tube era technology from the 1930s.

   Over 300 neon gas diodes create the sound you hear. Pretty awesome for technology from 100 years ago.

   Still a work-in-progress, but I wanted to post a video of it with the innards spread out across the workbench. : }

   I call it the "Neon String Machine"
