[sdiy] crazy module/cordless patching idea??

[med]

Hello to the list. First idea posted, it's a bit sketchy, i've worked
out *none* of it.
A few days ago i was thinking, actually about a wireless guitar
transmitter/receiver pair like Shure put out, and it combined with
thoughts of the "how the hell to do many patches?" concept.
Outputs have a radio transmitter at some frequency (each a different
one, naturally). It doesn't have to be high-powered, just enough to go
a few yards (at extreme most). At each input is a receiver. (plus a
few regular audio ins, of course) Care would have to be taken to not
make your frequency anything used elsewhere, (though that would be a
cool effect -- combining a synth lead with talk radio...)

For instance, your keyboard makes a CV, which goes to a transmitter.
That is received by the VCO in. VCO out has another radio transmitter.
Every input you want to connect, you tune to that frequency. You could
patch across a room (granted, you'd have to bring antennae out if your
front panel was shielded worth a damn.) S/N issues could be handled
(to some degree) by increasing the transmitting signal.

Just food for thought,
-MED
(who some day might build something like that -- though he'd have to
be mad...)
