Title: Any Theremin playeds in the house?
Post by: spookstrickland on August 12, 2015, 04:28:48 AM
I was at a kick ass Zep tribute concerte this weekend and the guy had a Theremin like Page played.  I would sure like to pick one up but all i can find online are uber exspensive giant ones or fly by night looking companies selling shit built out of radio shack project boxes.  Anyone know of an affordable but not a piece of shit theremins that will alow me to get my Zep on?

You might want to look at Moog's Theremini.
It looks and plays like a theremin but it's really a programmable synth.  You get the Classic sound + much more and you can program scales rather than just being chromatic.

A guy I know from a past life, mounted a theremin to his bass.  Had the antennae retract inside the body.  Kinda cool.

I had the HiWatt, totally pulled out R2-D2 sounds and the digi delay in it was pretty good sounding. The only bummer was it only had an 1/4 output jack, so you can't use it in-line like a pedal. You would need a separate amp or an inst switcher.
