Volume somehow varying from frequency

Postby bytecode77 » Fri Nov 07, 2014 5:28 pm

The volume of my tesla coil seems to vary. Lower frequencies seem to be much louder than higher ones, rendering it a bit wiggly to listen to.

Here's a video: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=99 ... 4365238335

(Facebook, because I want to upload only finished projects on YouTube)

Is this normal? Can this be fixed?

It's normal. The note volume was programmed for constant power draw by the coil. It can be changed by re-programming the ATMega.
