Fernandes Echo-Theremin

Submitted by Chuck from Milwaukee, WI (14 points) on May 2, 2002
It was just a matter of time before someone combined a delay into a Theremin. Great for wacky sounds. With a flanger it really sounds like it is saying 'Beer,! The playing range is barely 5 to 6 inches. Normal Theremins have a playing range measured in feet. Sound quality is compromised because of IC 'chip' style circuitry without oscillator coils. Very great amount of 'Pulling' where the hand must forcibly activate the circuit and then you can back away for lower tones.
Good Points: Compact noismaker with built in delay in a nice styled package.
Bad Points: This is what you get when you try to build a flying car that doubles as a submarine. Its best to have the parts instead of the whole.
