:: His playing was excellent.
Yes, exciting.
:: It reminds me of Lydia Kavina's theremin made by Tony Henk..
..which design to me is fine exceptional.
:: A volume-only theremin (in conjunction with a fixed volume electronic instrument - for instance, a stylophone) is of far more musical benefit than a pitch-only theremin!
I agree. Precise and fast amplitude modulation with a foot operated volume-pedal ainĀ“t that easy, too.
:: It would be nice to see a volume only theremin component for sale as an add-on for folks who already have a pitch-only half.
Which could be the more complex and more expensive unit.. i guess pitch only players commonly will use a pitch-only as effect devices and might be happy with a foot-volume-pedal.
::Modular theremins FTW!
Pitch preview is possible for those being in the need of. A delay before the VCA for example. On Fuzz-units distortion happens with the signal getting stronger. Which could be good. With a Fuzz before the VCA the already distorted signal can be amplitude modulated.
Besides: a Theremin in two units might pack smaller. But it is kind of uncomfortable to get in on the stand (s) and then all those cables.. model 007!
