Video desciption:
"All audio from Rorschach running through a cheap delay pedal. The vertical movement on the screen is due to the faulty tracking on the TV. All patterns generated by Rorschach.

Rorschach by Lumatic Visual Devices is an analog-style video synthesizer designed for artists exploring video synthesis, live visuals, and audio-reactive image generation. It works equally well as an entry point into video synth hardware or as a creative expansion for experienced users.
Rorschach is well suited to live performance, with the ability to self-generate evolving patterns using its built-in randomisation features. Its functionality can be extended further by feeding control voltage, gate signals, or audio into the modulation inputs, making it easy to integrate into modular and experimental setups.
With a clear, functional, and immediate control layout, Rorschach is an excellent starting point for anyone taking their first steps into video synthesis, while still offering enough depth to remain engaging for more experienced users. Compact and portable, it also features an audio output that converts the video signal into a distinctive drone voice.
Rorschach generates its own black and white composite video patterns straight out of the box. Its functionality expands further when used alongside modular or Eurorack systems, or when audio signals or control voltage are fed into the CV and gate inputs. The focus is on experimentation, play, and hands-on control.
A dedicated random section allows the synthesizer to run freely, generating evolving patterns automatically and in real time. Leave it running during a performance, or introduce external signals such as a kick drum or sequencer to push the visuals into new territory.
Key features
Four main controls for horizontal position, vertical position, width, and height
– CV inputs for all four parameters
Form control selects from six pattern generator modes
– Can also be modulated via audio input or control voltage
Random control sets the amount of randomness applied to the four position parameters on each refresh
– Independent switches and gate inputs for each random parameter
– CV input for random amount
Clear screen modes:
– Clear / Random Clear / No Clear
– Gate input for clear screen
Pattern colour switching:
– White / Black / Invert
Horizontal and vertical mirroring switches
– Independent gate input for each axis
Composite video output via RCA connector
Audio output allowing the generated visuals to be used as a drone sound source
Power Rorschach is supplied with a 9V battery clip.
If you would like to run Rorschach off a wall adapter you will need a 9V CENTRE POSITIVE adapter.
Power requirements:- Minimum 70mA
