We will be watching your career with great interest
That was a hell of a good video. I'm quite impressed with the amount of detail you gave. Keep it up!
Ohh MIT is it? Now I understand... ;) My PhD is in statistical inference, AI, control theory, Markov models and Operations Research. But I went to BU
Yeeeeeeeesssss
Wow, also we get an explanation of all, thanks thats cool
a vacuum tube Theremin? dude you are a genius.
Hey Tanner, I hope you're doing okay with school and all. Just want to wish you the best and tell you to keep up the hard work, I'm sure first year MIT isn't easy but if anyone can do it you can!
I have a question. How did you manage to gather such technical knowledge at such young age? Did you go to college early? Did you study all the the hard math required to build a circuit, or do you so without?
Thank you for your time and awesome projects😁
I got started at age 11 reading Getting Started in Electronics by Forest E Mims 3rd, which was a great book written at a level I could understand even in elementary school. I have a PhD now but still that book teaches me stuff even now. I didn't specialize in this area of engineering. I also built a number of kits from Heathkit etc back in the day as well as from this book. You really need an oscilloscope to get very far. I started teaching myself programming at age 12 and took community college classes at age 15 and 17 in programming. If I could do it again I would have taken a class on DC circuit theory at a community college at age 11 or 12. AC circuit theory however would have blown my mind. But I guess I could have handled it with a little hand holding at age 14. You need to understand phasers which are mathematical constructs that use complex numbers. I didn't see complex numbers until 7th grade... and wasn't at all comfortable with them. None of this stuff involves calculus yet... The calculus aspect of DC and AC electronics can be delayed quite a while. It's not needed. And besides an integral can simply be thought of as a summation a la quadrature. I'm quite impressed with this video. I follow it but couldn't easily have created it. I'd do much better at programming the arduino perhaps, however. I've never messed with an arduino but I do a lot of C and numerical computation and other things...
Hee Tanner, thank you for your super details explanation. I have the simplest question. What do you attach to the other side of the audio cable? An amplifier, audio console? Speakers? Or a combination? I have my theremin connected with a USB cable to a power socket and have it grounded to a metal object but what do I do with the audio? Thank you in advance! I just can't make it function right now.
Fire intro as always
Should try making the signal antenna a large spring, a challenge to keep up with 😂
Do you have a radiator you could connect to rather than jamming a screwdriver into a power outlet 👀
Hi Tanner, I have the same board. I loved your video because you way so deep in the argument. Excelent job!
Do you know if there is a different way to connect the ground to the socket, instead of a screwdriver?
I love the gnd screwdriver lol
Damn dude, you've got a great ability to to explain technical information. Plus you've put in the consistent work/uploads to YT. Your channel should be getting at least 100k views easily.
You probably shouldn't take my advice but with that being said maybe improve your thumbnails. Give them a style that'll stand out. Lately the algorithm gods are favoring faces.
ElectroBOOM is a perfect example they're cheesy but also funny but above all they work.
P.S. thanks for giving me content to binge
Genius...!
I am currently building the tube Theremin and find the tunable coils hard to find.
where do i source the antennas that you are using in this video? ............. thanks alan
Super sir
Please, Tanner can you help me and you ? The sudden pulse of powerful laser, supposedly cuts a vacuum stream, then of which an extremely high voltage will follow precisely!!
Found you channel lately and I love it, your lab is awesome, when r u making a new vid?
0:11 bruh
How many patent you have filed so far?
Dear god the screwdrive-- oh it's on GND
You’re going to be the next Elon musk
COLpitts' oscillator, not "Cope litz"
Can this thing be programmed to make different noises? For example, can it go really deep like in this video: ruclips.net/video/nE_sAnSkW-Q/видео.html
beware, you start with a theremin and you'll end up with a wall of modular synth :D
Has anyone ever thought to turn one into a mouse? Then we can have the "Minority Report" gesture controlled computer.
That's actually a really good idea. I'm going to try to make this now. Thanks!
@@TannerTech I've always wanted to see those two together for, decades now. I've just never had a theremin to test it.
@@TannerTech so, how's the theremin mouse project going? I was thinking about it again and I didn't mention that the original plan was supposed to be a PS2 mouse connection. I'm not sure how a Theremin could replicate a USB signal.
How old are you :)
If you open your mouth that device will sound differently
Lol @ adams apple giveaway the hummung....
I was not humming, the sound in this video was from the theremin. There is no way that I nor anyone else could hum like that, especially with the vibratto. My adams apple moving while playing is interesting though. It might be from me subconsciously forming the note in my throat while playing it
@@TannerTech in your 3rd video (about laser Theremin (harp like playing) people will FINALLY believe you actually play. lol
