Wave Theremin – where to begin ...
At first glance it seems overwhelming just looking at all the knobs and
buttons. Let us have a look at the overall structure of the Theremin.
The Wave-Theremin is in fact 3 Theremins in one:
(1) It can be played like a normal Wave-Theremin producing audio output
from within the Theremin itself, using a variety of build in oscillators, wave-
forms and modulators, to create a multitude of different sounds and effects.
(2) It is also a MIDI-Theremin, capable of producing a stream of midi
messages, to control some other midi-capable instrument, that in turn
produces the desired audio output or controls external filters etc....
(3) It can also be used as a theremin controlled filter/modulator, processing
signals from the audio input and sending the resulting wave forms to the
audio output. Examples of this would be the ladder-style self-resonating 24
dB filter or the Ring Modulator.
Note: For the sake of simplicity, only the most important functions are
marked on the front panel. When setting up the Theremin, it is necessary to
have the
'MODE SELECTION MATRIX'
and the
'SETUP MODE
MATRIX'
handy or use the
'user-manual'
as a guide.
