Awesome stuff Ben! Very cool video...

[catfud]

My kids just watched your video and after it finished the youngest (2 yrs 10 months) said "make one, daddy". So that's that, I *have* to make one now.

Been wanting to build a Theremin forever... This is going into the build list.

Man! I just found a fabbed pcb of that project that InsonicBloom (Paul) had made available a while ago on BYOC! WIN!

l wouldn't mind seeing the build doc for it, if you've got it, I wanted to see if he'd changed anything...

It's printed paper sheet with hand written notes, i'll scan it and send it your way, if i don't... just recall me it.

This theremin is just incredible !
The graphics are awesome, and the video is great too !
I am really wondering what mods you can use on such a "pedal"... Does it works well with other effects after it ? I am very curious to see how it can sounds with a POG for instance, or even a delay or reverb !

EDIT : ow I actually found someone using it with HOG, reverb and el capistan, it is just awesome !

Might be fun standing on one leg hopping up and down over it while playing guitar.

Thanks for the theramin vero link sir.
Having a bit of trouble following the mods and wiring you did compared to the vero drawing. Can you elaborate a bit more on the hook up for the external volume and RF controls? I assume the switch is just power interrupt.

Switch is just power interrupt, volume is just the standard voltage divider on the output. Paul revised his stripboard layout, I'd recommend you build the one I linked. Mine is built off the one he initially posted at BYOC about 5years ago, hence some differences.

Yes, of course! I had a fair bit of spring reverb on in the clip, but delay sounds cool too. I also like tremolo, flanger, phaser or Fuzz!
