control is a highly sophiscated bi phase, frequency and amplitude, DSP based sine wave
generator, with a dedicated discrete power amplier to drive the motor. It generates
two pure sine waves which drive twin coils present inside a custom made AC motor. The
frequency (speed) is user adjustable in approximately 0.0133 Hz steps allowing a very
accurate musical pitch to be set.
