Product Description

The Moog Etherwave Theremin Kit is an electronic musical instrument that you build yourself.

So what do you get in the kit?

The kit uncludes a wooden cabinet that is unfinished, ready for your finishing touches! A pre-built circuit board with antennas and accessories is also in the kit. Parts of the wiring need soldering, so if you're buying this kit then you will need to know how to solder.

The Moog Etherwave Theremin Kit is an outstanding theremin with a design that is just like the original theremins, with a five-octave pitch range and reliable spacing between notes for sophisticated playability.

Antennas are nickel-plated 3/8" brass tube and the cabinet is furniture-grade hardwood. The Etherwave is fitted with an adapter for mounting on a standard microphone stand. The Theremin is one of the oldest electronic instruments, and the only one known that you play without touching. Moving your hands in the space around its antennas controls pitch and volume.

The distance from one antenna determines frequency (pitch), and the distance from the other controls the amplitude (volume). The Moog Etherwave Theremin is capable of generating tones of any pitch throughout its entire five-octave range, including those that are between the western 12-tone scale.

Originally invented by Leon Theremin in the 1920s, its haunting sound will be instantly familiar for those who've been watching early Sci-Fi movies. Bob Moog started out in the business by designing and building Theremins in the early 1950s.
