LED management
The LEDs are powered by a 9-volt battery. We suggest using a 9-volt rechargeable battery, as its purpose is solely to power the LEDs.
The LEDs are controllable using two rotary and push buttons. The first button allows the violinist to control the different modes and select the colors. The second manages the LED light intensity. The light intensity is such that, in dark setting, it is necessary to decrease it in order to avoid being blinded!
The battery life is approximately 1 hour and a half, depending on the mode and intensity of the selected LEDs.
The electronic system embedded in the violin body can be updated by the user. Suggested updates will be made available to instrumentalists, as free downloads from our website.

Shape & Design
The Prism’s design is similar to our other electric violins. The design was created in order to be the most simple as possible.
After machining, the violin body is sanded manually to obtain a soft feel and undergoes a series of post-treatments in order to protect it durably.
The electronic system is placed in a custom box, into which transparent parts are inserted.
They provide excellent LED reflection on the whole violin body and great color visibility for the audience.

Illumination
The Prism incorporates dozens of LEDs in order to light up on stage. It offers different lighting settings selectable by the violinist: 

    Mode 1 – Breath: A selectable color that flickers intermittently like breathing

    Mode 2 – Pure: A single color chosen by the violinist

    Mode 3 – Gradient: A changing color gradient, adaptable by the violinist

    Mode 4 – Prism: A changing color gradient, based on a prism’s colors

    Mode 5 – Sound Reactive: A responsive mode depending on what is played by the violinist. The Prism lights up with different intensities depending on the notes played.

    Mode 6 – Color Reactive: A responsive mode depending on what is played by the violinist. The Prism changes colors according to the notes played.

    Mode 7 – Fire: A mode that imitates flames.
