    So, I’m looking to emulate the ondes Martenot “on the cheap” (here meaning, about £1k for the controller and not more than another £1k with all the other gear). I’m not anything close to being good with synth technology, so this might night even be possible. But assuming that is it – what EHX gear could I use to get this effect?

    In particular, I’m thinking:
    Basic sine wave output
    Other timbres if possible
    Possibly a harmonic filter pedal, a volume pedal, and pitch shifting.

    Nice project for Bill Ruppert to investigate.

    Sounds like you could replicate it with:

    HOG or POG2 for octaves, pitch sliding, and for shaping the attack and release

    PolyChorus for the pitch vibrato

    I would also recommend something like the Pigtronix Mothership for the VCO tones.

    Tube EQ in self oscillation with some sort of ribbon controller in the EXP jack for pitch.
    You might have to make one, resistance is 10K
    Poly Chorus or analog memory Man for vibrato.
    With a ribbon you could do the vibrato with your fingers as well.
