Was rummaging about in my bookmarks, and found this. It’s a design for an oscillator that uses a home made component made out of a scrap of galvanised steel! Interesting for those of us having trouble getting components.

It seems a bit sketchy for use in a rack, but is still cool imho.
I love this kind of thing!
I guess you could call it the lockdown oscillator? This site also has some interesting content about something he called a magnetic amplifier. He seems to be into actually building functional components, which could be used in a synth.
That’s the Steiner behind the Steiner-Parker Synthacon filter, so he knows his way around synthesizers.
Wow, completely missed that… I managed to stumble on that web site waaaaaaaay before I discovered LMNC. Always had a fascination for oscillators.
Steiner has been a great source for EWI mods. The man is a legend.
