Greetings,
I'm new to the forum and am a bit of an amateur. I have a vintage Hammond organ connected to a rotating (Leslie) speaker. Part of the connection involves a circut that sends AC from the organ to the speaker motor, with a switch to open and close the circuit right at hand of the musician. The problem is having AC right @ by one's hand.
I've heard of other people creating a circuit so that the AC is converted to DC to the switch, and than somehow converted back to AC to run the motor. The strenght of the voltage at the switch is not important - just low enough not to accidently kill a person. Any insight as to how to create this circuit is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
