  Hi list,
 
  I am sending this to the list as some may be interested in purchasing
  the Tactile VU Meter.  It is a device about the size of a pack of
  smokes. You can calibrate it to vibrate when the signal fed to it
  exceeds a set point, thus alerting, tactually, when a desired level is
  reached.
 
  Mention is made of a schematic one can use to make their own if one
  wants. This person is willing to manufacture several if desired. The
  price will be determined by the number of units to make. Please read
  below and familiarize your self with the email's he and I traded on this
  topic.

  I enquired about a product called the Tactile VU Meter.
  Below is the series of emails between myself and Robert Armstrong,
  who is the person offering to make them.

  To whom it may concern,
  I belong to a group of blind musicians and am contacting you to learn
  how individuals
  of our group may purchase the Tactile VU Meter.

I'm sorry to say that we don't really manufacture the tactile VU
  meter.  In four
  or five years I think we've only made three or four, and that's
  counting the first
  one that I made for my wife.  Depending on how many you want, there
  are a couple
  of options
* If you want just one or two, then I'm willing to make them for
  you in my spare
  time, but it might take a few months.  If you have a friend who can
  build one, or
  if you can do it yourself (don't laugh - I know blind people who can
  solder!) then
  you're always welcome to assemble your own using the schematic and
  information on
  the web page.
* If you want a bunch, where a bunch is ten, twenty, or more,
  then we can talk
  about a special manufacturing run.  We could even talk about
  designing a new one
  - frankly, if I was going to do it again I'd do a lot of things
  differently.

Re: building or purchasing tactile VU meter

2006-08-17 Thread Brent Harding
Oh, just discovered the existence of that last night on a site called 
www.abledata.com. I also discovered another device that claims to work for 
any type of meter at all, suggestive of automotive, broadcast, TV and radio 
test equipment, etc in that audalevel series, going up to 4 channels to read 
4 different meters. I wonder if Abledata isn't out of date on info about 
these products because they still show that things like the Zenith talking 
VCR's are still available at Ann Morris and such.

work
 at home and work at two radio, one using two studios. We are now using an
 audalevel from SFB products and I don't know if they are even in existence

 Hi,

 I personally don't know much but what I do know is;

 It's about the size of a pack of cigarettes with an on/off switch and
 a tiny potentiometer for aligning it to a voltage. It has a stereo
 mini plug for input and uses a pager motor to vibrate when a
 threshold has been exceeded.


 I will add you to the list and send you the url when I get it.

building or purchasing tactile VU meter

2006-08-15 Thread Kevin Doucet
Hi list,

I am sending this to the list as some may be interested in purchasing 
the Tactile VU Meter.  It is a device about the size of a pack of 
smokes. You can calibrate it to vibrate when the signal fed to it 
exceeds a set point, thus alerting, tactually, when a desired level is reached.

Mention is made of a schematic one can use to make their own if one 
wants. This person is willing to manufacture several if desired. The 
price will be determined by the number of units to make. Please read 
below and familiarize your self with the email's he and I traded on this topic.

I enquired about a product called the Tactile VU Meter.
Below is the series of emails between myself and Robert Armstrong, 
who is the person offering to make them.

To whom it may concern,
I belong to a group of blind musicians and am contacting you to learn 
how individuals
of our group may purchase the Tactile VU Meter.
Please email me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  to let me know.
Thanks for your time and help.

Subject: RE: Tactile VU Meter!
   I'm sorry to say that we don't really manufacture the tactile VU 
meter.  In four
or five years I think we've only made three or four, and that's 
counting the first
one that I made for my wife.  Depending on how many you want, there 
are a couple
of options
   * If you want just one or two, then I'm willing to make them for 
you in my spare
time, but it might take a few months.  If you have a friend who can 
build one, or
if you can do it yourself (don't laugh - I know blind people who can 
solder!) then
you're always welcome to assemble your own using the schematic and 
information on
the web page.
   * If you want a bunch, where a bunch is ten, twenty, or more, 
then we can talk
about a special manufacturing run.  We could even talk about 
designing a new one
- frankly, if I was going to do it again I'd do a lot of things differently.

Hi Bob,
Do I have your permission to share this with the emailing list I 
belong to of blind
musicians? You could get good feedback on features.

   Sure, absolutely.  The more people who get together to buy one, 
the better deal
we can get.
