1. frequencies in the matrix are harmonically controlled in any energy field by the chosen fundamental frequency Usually the fundamental frequency is played as a drone It is the drone that seems to influence the effect of the sounds for it creates a stereo interval with all the other frequency ratios in the matrix All the tone ratios are harmonic to each other because of the fundamental governing frequency set at 1 1 A Procedure with a Client Lambdoma Standard Settings is chosen as seen in the box in the upper left corner The frequency is set by default at 256 Hertz in quadrant 1 A client is then asked to choose his or her favorite sound from the intervals that are heard when pressing individual keys in the 64 keys of the 8 by 8 matrix in quadrant 1 When the specific frequency is chosen from the quadrant 1 overlay in color or on the screen delete the number 256 and set the new keynote frequency number in the dialog box The frequency chosen may be related to the needs of the client in terms of resonating to the emotional physical etheric and oracle capacities Then you as the operator after entering the frequency chosen by the client select the Ist quadrant again and have the client play chords on the keyboard for approximately 4 minutes If the client wishes to view the shapes of the harmonic sound intervals that he or she is playing select the Lissajous figure symbol an orbit If the client wishes to see the ratios or the frequencie2. the harmonics and sub harmonics of that fundamental resonant frequency being distributed throughout the entire field of ratios that control the frequencies Page 4 2008 Barbara Hero Lambdoma com Edirol functions for the midi Lambdoma keyboard 1 Installing the Edirol CD in your computer is not necessary for therapeutic use but may be desirable for musicians The Edirol switch for standard is set to on The Edirol switch for advanced is set to off Put the Edirol s midi out plug into the keyboard midi port that is labeled out Plug the USB cable s plug into the computer s USB port nA BWW Power supply to Lambdoma keyboard Plug the adapter s A C plug into an electric outlet Plug the D C end of the keyboard power supply into D C jack on the rear of the keyboard 3 Turn on the switch at the left rear of the keyboard to light up the diode on the logo of the keyboard at the lower right Ne Page 5 2008 Barbara Hero Lambdoma com
