Modular synthesizer enthusiasts looking for a monster distortion unit will be impressed with the erica synths Plasma Drive, a high-voltage distortion Eurorack module with a unique distortion / signal-clipping flavor. Developed in collaboration with Gamechanger Audio, the Plasma Drive boosts your audio signal to 3000V and transforms it into a series of continuous high-voltage discharges in a Xenon-filled tube. The signal is then converted back to an analog audio signal, producing a quick, responsive, and heavy distortion with tons of character.

The Plasma Drive provides CV control over distortion levels and the dry/wet mix, and gives you oscillators that track one octave up, and one and two octaves down, adding even more harmonics to the original signal. Tracking oscillators can be switched on/off manually or via trigger signals. The module includes a power ribbon cable and a set of mounting screws.

Q: 1. Will this work on the L-558 meter?

A: No, the Sekonic RT-GX Godox Transmitter Module will only work with the following models. Lowepro DP Kit Sekonic Speedmaster L-858D-U

Q: 2. will this attach and work on either side meaning both the right and the left sides of the DJI RS2?

A: Yes, it can be mounted to either side of the RS2.

Q: 3. Before I buy this, I need to know if this will work with the Sekonic L-358? I see someone said yes, but when I did a search online everything I'm seeing it only works with the L858D-U.

A: No, The following unit is designed and made for the speedmaster L-858D-U Light Meter. Not the L-358.

Q: 4. Does this unit provide connection to Broncolor Grafit & Verso power packs equipped with original RFS system?

A: I contacted Sekonic concerning your inquiry. According to Sekonic, the original RFS receiver found in the older packs such as the older Broncolor Grafit A4 RFS Power Pack and the Broncolor Verso A2 RFS Power Pack work on 900 Hz radio frequency. The new transmitters/receivers which are found in the newer kits work on RFS 2/2.1/2.2, which use the 2.4 GHz radio frequency. As such, the newer radios cannot directly communicate with the older wireless radio system, and the Sekonic RT-BR Broncolor Transmitter Module would not talk to the power packs you own. As a work-around, you may purchase a Broncolor RFS 2 Receiver, B&H # BRRFS2R, and connect it to the sync terminal on your older power packs. While you will not have power control capability, you will be able to trigger the older power packs from a Sekonic meter with the installed RT-BR Broncolor transmitter module.

Q: 5. The Specifications says the interior dimensions are 43.18 x 27.94 x 5.08cm. My 17.3 laptop measures 42cmx28cmx2.5cm. So in principle my laptop should still fit into this however, ion the description it says it fits up to 15 . Has anybody tried fitting a 17.3 laptop into this case?

A: I would trust PortaBrace on this. It might be a very tight fit in the width. you will need to try it for yourself. it may become very difficult to insert and withdraw the computer.

Q: 6. What comes in the box for the Zacuto Tornado Grip for Z-Drive? If I purchase the Zacuto C100 EVF Recoil will I be able to attach the Tornado to it or will I have to purchase a bunch of other items?

A: What you see is what you get. You'll need the z-drive and 15mm rails to mount that to. Z-drive is good...tornado grip is not necessary. You'll also need focus gear rings if you're using dslr glass.

Q: 7. Will this trigger a Canon ST-E3-RT?

A: Unfortunately, it will not. This is for the Godox X wireless radio system.

Q: 8. is this drive the same one used in the AJA Ki Pro Recorder or do they use different drives?

Q: 9. The included Edelkrone focus ring adapters bump into the module during calibration. If I were to put something like a Tilta Follow Gear Ring adapter around a Canon EF lens, what would happen during the Edelkrone's app calibration? Would the lens spin forever because there are no hard stops? Or would it find it.

A: Typically during the calibration process you would be able to stop the rotation at the lens's focus end points and the motors will digitally mark the end points, knowing the min and max focus throw.

Q: 10. does the focus module fit with with Pan + Tilt (Dual HeadONE)?

A: The HeadONE is not listed under compatible products. This focus module is compatible with the HeadPLUS and the HeadPLUS PRO.
