+Rob Scallon Sure is. I have one of these, but never quite got the swing of it. I could play some stuff with it, but I never felt that I had it really down cold.
you can play guitar with 900 strings but you can't play something that you don't even need to touch? I don't believe. I challenge thee to cover metal song on theremin. ready? go!
None, you don't hit it because it would break. You don't pluck it because it isn't stringed. Blow? I'd love to see you blow air to have it produce sound. Go ahead, r/woooosh me :/
My jaw was on the floor literally the entire video. As a mechanical engineer and a musician, this instrument tickles parts of me I never knew could be tickled.
+joolzzenda The whole heterodyning part was a massive pain though as I had a teeny tiny variable resistor inside it which was turned with a screwdriver but touching the screwdriver to it interfered with the whole thing and changed the frequency out the output and it was SO HARD to get it right! And it needed re-doing every time you switched it on because the conditions would change!
In the movie Electronic Odyssey I saw Lew Thermen calibrating his own instrument by putting the screwdriver in the vicinity of the pitch antenna :-). Its easier...
@@joolzzenda I wanted to know how is the capacitance being developed, despite the hand being independent of the circuit? Is it the ground, and if yes, then why does it work even with shoes on?
It is worth noting that you also need an inductor in combination with the capacitor in order create the oscillations. Although you didn't mention it by name, you did show an inductor in the diagram at 1:25.
+Robert Armstrong If you just had a capacitor by itself the current would flow from one end to another and neutralize itself. In other words it would decay. The inductor allows the current to induce a electric field, which is changing, and that induces an opposite current in the inductor. Which means the current is now flowing the opposite way and recharges the capacitor. This keeps happening which is the oscillation.
+Robert Armstrong the inductor resists change in current and stores energy in its magnetic field which is produced by current flowing through it. When the capacitor is fully charged there is no current in the wire, therefore no magnetic field on the incductor. but the charge wants to equalize with the other plate of the capacitor so the current starts to flow through the wire, through the inductor, and towards the other plate, this current produces a magnetic field in the inductor. once the charge on both plates is equal the current no longer wants to flow, but the inductor has stored up energy in its magnetic field and it wants to resist the current from stopping. this magnetic energy is what forces the current to continue flowing until the capacitor is fully charged again but in the opposite direction, and again the current has stopped and the inductor no longer has a magnetic field. then this process repeats over and over causing oscillation. without the inductor the charge would equalize on the capacitor and nothing would happen. i hope that made sense.
I teach the history and functionality of electronic instruments, and have been doing so for many years. This is, hands down, the best description and explanation I have ever seen in regard to the theremin. Thank you!
I received my Theremin yesterday and it has already changed my life. I'm a lifelong musician and the ability to detach myself from touching the instrument is amazing. Keyboards, stringed instruments and others which require manipulation of knobs are limiting unless you are a specialist. The Theremin, by its non-contact nature, enables one to express one's inner self with small movements of the hands. It's an ideal instrument for contemplation and expressing one's soul.
I’ve been playing for 3 years. Currently making videos and writing theremin music! The theremin is such a wonderful instrument. Thanks for the video! ☺️
You, sir, are amazing. I have to say I didn't expect much from a four-minute video on this subject. But I follow your Crash Course videos, so when I saw you in this vid, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. Explaining not only capacitance, but heterodyning in under 4 minutes? That's what I came here for. Well done, sir. Also, you remind me of a very young Tom Lehrer.
It's interesting the theremin featured here is a Moog theremin... as in the Moog synthesizer (same manufacturer). Robert Moog sold these to help pay for the research on his synthesizer long ago, and his company continues to sell them today. The Moog synthesizer paved the way for the various electronic keyboard instruments we use today.
Darn! Just saw someone who did a wonderfully complex rendition of Long and Winding Road, and the muscle memory to play tones on that instrument so expertly is really impressive. Thanks for having this on why it works. Love SciShow -- understandable answers to very specific questions! Off to listen to some more theremin music.
What a wonder this world is. A theremin vid slipped into my TH-cam algorithm and now I'm on my way to buy one. One moment, you are blind to something, never knowing of its existence, the next, you can't wait for it to come in the mail. "and I think to myself.... what a wonderful world..."
1:10 I think it's most accurate to say capacitors store a voltage. The plates store a charge sure, but it's both the plates and the gap between them which makes a capacitor.
When I want to know something new .. SciShow and Hank come to the rescue. I've known about the theremin, but suddenly realised I thought it was magic. TH-cam recommendations and there you have it. Thank you so much!!
I did a class presentation on the theremin about 7 years ago and I've been in love with the instrument ever since! I own a lot of Clara Rockmore's theremin covers, what a virtuoso!! Someday I hope to at least try one out for myself or even own one!
The *charge* doesn't change with distance, though the *capacitance* definitely does. C = eA/d; d changes when you move your hand back and forth (A can too if you turn your hand relative to the antenna, though this is a relatively small effect given the effective aperture of the antenna). The real effect though, is on the resonant frequency of the LC tank (MOST theremins include this); one portion of the C being the capacitor formed by the player's hand and the antenna. The resonant frequency of the tank is: f = 1/ (2*pi*sqrt(LC)). In theremin design there is typically a relatively large discrete resonant capacitor (100 to 1000 pF), which the player/antenna capacitor is in parallel with. The hand to antenna capacitance is tiny in comparison, maxing out at only a few pF. But that's enough! The other elements in the circuit are fixed, and a few pF of difference causes a detectable change in the resonant frequency, and thus the variations in pitch and volume which turn a simple circuit into an instrument. :-)
That was awesome! I saw a young lady play this Theremin live as a show opener for the Bare Naked Ladies when they played my hometown! It was pretty spectacular!
If you are fortunate enough to have the manuscript score of Bernard Herrmann's "Day the Earth Stood Still" you will note that 2 Theremins [one tuned 'high and one tuned 'low'] are required.
+DioOmicida Early King Crimson fits in that genre, and perhaps even Jean Luc Ponty does too. For Crimson I'd suggest Red, Starless and Bible Black, and Islands.
@@Rachel-zm9up You know, after I made this comment 4 years ago, I tried playing my theremin backwards and I have to admit that I prefer it this way. I'll admit, I'm not trained on the thing and couldn't accurately perform a song with it, I mainly use it for sound effects in the recording studio, but coming from a cello background I found that it was more intuitive to control pitch with my left hand and volume with my right. It's one of the Moog Etherwave kits, so I may open it up again and try to reverse the whole thing.
@Metabeard that’s really interesting! I can see why it would be easier to control with left hand for string players. I’ll have to try that; my main instrument is violin. I mostly play classical music on the theremin, and I’m pretty used to using my right hand by now, so it might be hard to switch, but I’ll give it a try!
Heterodyning is also how most bat detectors work. The ultrasonic echolocation calls of the bats are converted into to AC, which is then combined with a an internally generated current, so that you end up with frequencies that when sent to a speaker produce sounds we can hear. Unlike in the theremin, the internal frequency is adjustable, allowing you to scan through a range of ultrasound frequencies, and fine tune when you hear a bat.
Amazing video !! i was wondering about how the theremin actually works!! thank you!! by the way, Leon Theremin was also a Cello player and invented a Theremin Cello AKA Fingerboard Theremin
hey hank, i think you have the theramin set up backwards. the antenna should always be to the right of the performer. that way you can control the knobs in front of you.
There's other videos of *actual* theremin players on the internet that show you better how to play than Hank did. Thomas Grillo, for example, provides video lessons on playing on his TH-cam channel.
I thought that higher frequency means higher pitch. If that is the case, the closer your hand it to the vertical antenna, the higher the frequency is due to the shorter space in which the wave can travel. You demo a higher pitch when the your hand is close to the antenna but later in the video you explain with visual that the higher frequency is when your hand is farther away. Can someone please explain this? Thanks

It's the electricity
In spanish to say "play an instrument" is said the same as "touching and instrument", so the theremin is hard to explain in spanish
