Testing out a new polyphonic MIDI interrupter for our DRSSTC during our end of year meeting on May 25th, 2022. There were some issues with the conducted EMI from the little Tesla Coil interfering with the USB connection sending the MIDI notes, but it otherwise went well for a first high power test. Spark length on the big Tesla Coil was mainly limited by our dumb chain of power strips going to a standard 120V outlet. Both coils are playing the same thing, but the little one responds to higher frequencies better (it's really only single-resonant).
