3:17 The distorted sound is likely a result of an inexpensive circuit in the theremin that uses a low-cost relaxation oscillator instead of a more-expensive resonant oscillator. (The amplifier isn't so much the culprit.) Relaxation oscillators have poor selectivity, and are therefore more prone to interference. You can hear the influence of the power mains in the loudspeaker, especially near the "zero beat" (lowest pitch) when such interference is most detectable. Try a 206E theremin for much better results.
A normal theremin is pretty hard to tune even moving a bottle off the table can affect the tuning. Needless to say I think the theremin is a hands free experience
Im so glad I found your channel! This is all so interesting. Im really basic with my instruments but i love trying out new ones and can experience that through you lolol
actually you can play very beautifully with it! I know little about it but I felt in love with this instrument when I heard clair de lune played with it
I'm not familiar with keyboard volume pedals. But I'm sure a guitar pedal would work. They do make volume pedals for guitars too... it would be cool to try some echo loops and wah wah pedals on a theramin.
"I'm here to make noise, and noise I shall make"
out of all the instruments he reviewed in the past i think this is the instrument he plays best
And I still played it badly, so that's saying something
@@LOOTd indeed, it says that, y'know, the instrument sucks. :)
The ghosts of otamatone
Why is this guy so underrated?

This man has the supernatural ability to play smoke on the water on literally anything wtf
It's a curse
@@LOOTd oof

Full sized Theremins, yes, but not sure this one has what it takes to have Clair de Lune played on it
How to get the sound and best advice to buy a good one that doesn't cost an arm ? Also any links?
I'm digging the pup shirt
As a musician I can say, you could definitely play a melody on that
" Ah.. The best sound, a theremin turning off"
😂 I laughed way to hard at that. And for that you've earned my subscription!
This is basically how metal detectors work when you sweep them across the ground. INTERESTING
Why are you so underrated
I love you Charles. You are destroying everything you touch. I imagine you with a proper harp. How much damage can you inflict?!?
This guy deserves millions of subs
Would love a theremin! They look so fun 😃
wow! i love the mix of music and performance! interesting idea to make separation in the notes too
F for Peavey :(
Never gets boring in this channel ❤
I randomly clicked on the section "It's like im watching the TT", so i decided to watch this entirely
He's actually kind of good with this instrument.
Thank you. I know they have foot volume pedals for keyboards would that work. Thanks again for the fun.
I'm not familiar with keyboard volume pedals. But I'm sure a guitar pedal would work. They do make volume pedals for guitars too... it would be cool to try some echo loops and wah wah pedals on a theramin.
Any chance of tabs for what you played?
love your "Potentially Unwanted Program" Shirt lol
Just found your channel while looking at theremin vids and I’m digging the PUP shirt
why are you so underrated tho?
It’s Sooty!!!! Someone’s murdering sooty! 😂
thumbs up for the isle of man TT footage XD
You can use a volume pedal and then you have a full Theremin :) Great video
Those sound effects were on point tho
ive got one to annoy the cat when he walks past it
best theremin video ever
I cracked up at the TT bit. 🤣
Hey love yor work
this is a pitch theremin just like the one jimmy page used in LZ
This is totally BADASS...sell me one....and another one for my grandson...
Can you use it with a talk box?
I think I have to get one, this looks incredibly fun 🤣 a way to annoy the neighbors
I love it's design
As fun as this seems, I'm still wondering how you can make music with this thing
Check out Rob Scallon's video on the theremin with Carolina Eyck!
Great Job. Great Video!
Put a multifx before amp (with pedal volume) and you have the ultimate air guitar
Old Amp Shall Be Missed..
F
Hey what’s that track playing at 5:34 please?
Rip old amp, you will surely be missed
Where can I get this
I have the Moog …👍🏻🎶👍🏻
Did you ever give the brand name of this theremin?
Would it work with a vox amplug AC30 and aux to my monitors?
Hey where did you get that one from I would like to know if I can buy it
Yes! I asked for this
i cant believe that you dont have a million subs!
Pup is a great band!!
13th! Checkmate people who are afraid of the number 13
Can it work with the antenna folded all the way back ?
I can hear Plug in Baby 😂
i don't know a lot about the theremin, so do you necessarily have to connect it to an amp?
thanks (:
With this theremin can you just manage the tone and not the volume right?
If you want to see thist theremin in song, it has shor solo in Daniel landa-blanický manifest
where is the smoke no the whater cover?
I want one of those
A hundred dollars. You got hosed...hosser!
I tried watching the video... But the lack of symmetry caused by the fact that only you left ear has a plug in it kept distracting me.
Korg monotron delay and a Termine
SHOUT OUT TO THE ISLE OF MAN TT 🇮🇲
2:33 Like 😅😅😅😅
Was it smoke on the water?
A theremin that has NO volume antenna is not even an instrument but just an ordinary noisemaker.
Its weird how few views these videos get
“Pheromone”
lots of fun but ....does not sound like a sine wave to me .
I took a s__t today right in the microwave
it sound just like korg monotron delay, not theremine
why does this have 500 likes? it should have 10k!!
Im making a 3d theramin using a 3d lidar. should cost roughly 15$
You gotta pray for me..
It’s been all day for me …
1 minute of silence for the peavey.
VOX. I approve. :)
The cooler otamatone
I haven’t watched the video yet but I’m guessing he going to try and play turning Japanese on it
I have a fender amp and it’s 15 years old lol
FROZEN MAN WAS HERE. .......
where is your english from ?
A volume pedal probably would of been useful.
Why are you guys getting even less views now?
No volume antenna ?? Disappointing.
Can you try it with autotune?
Longest emotional fart I've ever heard
lol 100$? i litterally did the same thing with my old radio in early 90th, when i was like 6, or something )
This would be better with proper effects and a volume pedal
Damn
Try Angklung.
Moog is pronounced like Vogue
I'm late for 1 hour
try the dombra lmao
FUNNY
Sounds like Yoko Ono’s singing
woah i was early today sweet
Boop
