"Look ma - no hands!"

Feature:
I wish it had a little more control over the timbre and a way to select different base waveforms. But for a traditional theremin, it already features more control than most.

Quality:
Rock solid construction. The circuit was designed by the man who invented the synthesizer - what else could you ask for?

Desirability:
Don't you?

Sound:
Superb!! For the price, this is simply the best theremin available.

Support:
Moog Music's customer support reminds me of the old candy shop on the corner. They treat everyone like a longtime friend an go out of their way to make you happy.

"Fantastic fun at a great price"

I've owned an etherwave for a year, and it's a great instrument. I'm a professional musician and music teacher in the UK, and already I can play it by ear, something I've never been able to do with the violin. It's not the easiest instrument to get to grips with, but it's well worth it. It has an immense novelty value when friends and family visit!

Description
Docs, Multimedia
From Our Catalog
Authentic theremin sound, fun to play. This is the instrument that so intrigued Bob Moog that he has spent the last 50 years building the most influential electronic musical instruments in the world. This is the build-it-yourself kit (unfinished wood cabinet, pre-built circuit board, several wiring points require soldering). All Etherwaves ship with two video tutorials on one DVD: Clara Rockmore: the Greatest Theremin Virtuosa, and Mastering the Theremin, featuring Lydia Kavina.

Features
Antennas: authentic shape, nickel-plated 3/8 in. brass

Cabinet: furniture-grade hardwoods and Birch plywood; Black instrument-grade finish; mounts on standard mic stand

Power: durable rocker switch, 110v wall transformer power supply

Audio Out: 1/4 in. phone jack on front panel, direct audio into your own amp/speaker

Timbre: 2 continuous rotary controls for waveform and brightness

Pitch Range: 5 octaves (3 above and 2 below middle C)

***Just like electric guitars and many keyboards, theremins require amplification. While the Etherwave Theremin Amp is recommended, most keyboard amplifiers or PA systems should also be sufficient.
