Hi all

Some months ago I was lucky enough to purchase a fully functional "Ondes Martenot" from another French fellow. It is in perfect electronic shape, and only the wood veneer needs to be restored in some places.

As a matter of fact, it has only the main "diffuseur" and I am dearly willing to have a Palm "diffuseur" however the odds for finding one are very low. Therefore I thought I would rather build one myself or made by a guitar maker...
However I miss documentation for this. Is there another "Ondes Martenot" owner on this forum that possess a "Palm diffuseur" that would accept to provide me with measurements of the Palm or care to send me detailed photos and close-ups to help me designing my own ? It would be great !

Try contacting S.E.A.M. perhaps? They make the Ondea replica, I don't know if they produce the resonators...

Thanks for your reply. S.E.A.M. which produces the Ondea only proposes a "Main diffuseur" no Palm, unfortunately...

Eventually I got all the information that I needed thanks to Thomas Blockhttp://www.thomasbloch.net a famous "ondistes" who played with famous modern musicians (Gorillaz...).
Thomas sent to me very detailed photographs.

Besides, he passed me on the latest information of the commercial project of revival of the ondes martenot by J-L Dierstein in France.

You'll find some photos of the new ondes martenot as well informations on the potential production rate and price her : http://www.thomasbloch.net/new_ondes_martenot
