How many  maniuplators will you use?   
 Jim:

There will be a single manipulator but with the use of  electronic circuits 
I'm having
 designed the others will be in sync as if being manipulated, only two  of 
the rod puppets
 will be completely controlled by myself the female singer and  conductor,
 A laptop will keep all in sync along with the lighting and FX
 This is something I will work on over the next year as There is no  deadline.
 If one were to have say 6 violinists playing in sync to the music all  can 
be controlled
 by a single control circuit board and servos , solo performers and  other 
single instruments
 would each have there own circuits.
 I'm having one dozen circuits custom made, that will have the  potential to 
control 15 -16
 rod puppets plus the 2 manually only controlled singer and conductor.  of 
course the total
 controlled figures could easily be double that, but that would be  over 
kill. I'm leaving in the
 option to add 2-3 background operatic singers that would be circuit  
controlled

Mark
