Description

Unleash a new realm of sonic exploration with the Landscape.fm Ferrous, a magnetic string resonator designed for adventurous musicians and sound artists. This innovative device, crafted in collaboration with sound artist Victoria Shen, transforms any steel-stringed instrument—be it a guitar, bass, or even a piano—into an experimental soundscape. By harnessing the power of six robust earth magnets and a variable speed motor, the Ferrous generates rich harmonics and ethereal swells that inspire creativity.

The Ferrous is as versatile as it is unique, offering multiple interaction modes to suit your experimental needs. The large push button propels the motor into a high RPM, delivering dynamic bursts of sound. Use the thumbwheel to fine-tune the motor speed, or engage with the touch plate for tactile, dermal interaction. For those integrating the Ferrous into a modular setup, the 3.5mm CV input allows for precise motor speed control via external signals.

Perfect for any musician eager to explore new musical dimensions, the Ferrous is a handheld marvel that promises endless possibilities. Attach it to stationary instruments like pianos or auto-harps with included rubber standoffs, ensuring a buzz-free experience with its threaded rubber nose.

cdm.link

Landscape.fm's Ferrous is a sonic marvel for experimental musicians, breathing life into steel strings with its mesmerizing magnetic dance. This spinning magnetic string resonator offers an innovative way to explore sound, transforming instruments into ethereal soundscapes with adjustable harmonics and overtones. The design is both beautiful and functional, making it a desirable piece of gear for those seeking unique auditory experiences. While its purpose-built nature outshines DIY alternatives, the absence of a video demonstration initially left some wanting more. Nonetheless, Ferrous makes a compelling case for its place in any sonic adventurer's toolkit, offering a new realm of musical possibilities.
