Got mine a few days ago and by experimenting I found that getting the pitch antenna away from the theramin helps. I used 2 audio adaptors that I already had, a 3.5mm to 6.5mm into the theramin, a 6.5mm to 3.5mm into the 1st adaptor, and the theramin antenna into the second. The adaptors were just mono and worked fine. They move the antennae 3" (75mm) to the right and now the pitch only changes when my hand is within 8" (20cm). The distance between notes decreases the closer your hand gets to the antenna for the higher pitches, so the lower couple of octaves are more controllable. I'm having fun with it.
So far the ONLY actually affordable theremin i'd consider an actual instrument. You just really need to add better Antennas to it that are giving you a bigger resistance so you can play the actual tonal range of a theremin. These thin Mini antennas are not sufficient enough. But at least it has both a Pitch AND a volume antenna. Most cheap Theremins somehow only always come with Pitch antenna only.
I've bought a couple antennas to try and improve on this and haven't had a ton of time yet to test them out. For $50ish I strongly recommend it as a musical tool to experiment with, and I love the Asian instrument sounds programmed as well as things like "broken piano" BUT many of those sounds react like an "on/off" trigger with the left hand, rather than a gradual volume. There are tones of traditional wave form synth/theremin sounds that do respond as expected to the volume control as well. Just wanted to keep you informed!
This is not really a theremin just a proximity trigger, if you want 'actual' playability and tone to use truly musically at budget look at the Open Theremin v4
Well... this was the much needed proof that the amazon reviewers had no idea how to play that thing. It seem to play well enough, and some instruments sounds does cut the notes more abruptly; however it clearly has range if you play it by distance and not altitude. Thanks for the demo!
I just got one of these today. It will create some great SFX for my music tracks. I just need to harness the tones I want. It is amazing with how many tones there are. The koto is cool sounding.
I would love to hear what you come up with! I'm impressed by the sounds available, and I had a lot of fun running it into some wild reverbs, I just haven't had time to explore it lately.
I just got this. It was supposed to be my Christmas gift but hubby told me to open the package thinking it was sonething else. About 15 years ago I had a 'build it yourself kit" i refused help and messed the kit up badly. This came with barely any instructions so your video is going to be my teacher.
For the $50 or less price tag I'm really enjoying it. Especially with a nice reverb or delay pedal. I'm not great at controlling it yet, and there are two basic types of sounds. The continuous type, where the left hand controls the volume, or the trigger type, where the left hand triggers the beginning of the sound, if you lower your left hand to lower the volume on the trigger based sounds, it just cuts off the trigger, but again with the right reverb this is still plenty useful!
@@nerdebynature currently priced at $72 on Amazon in the US but I feel anything under $100 with this type of portability and list of features is well worth it... I do much more experimenting than recording so I really just enjoy the process... Great demo video though I feel I will definitely be picking one up soon...
@@iamYork_ so -if- you're comfortable ordering on AliExpress and waiting like 4 weeks you can probably find it for $45. I've had nothing but good luck with electronics on there except for the lengthy delivery dates. I also understand if you're not interested in using a site that some folks think is sketchy! I'm gonna give you a follow to see if/what you make with it! Take care!
@@nerdebynature don't know much about the site... Actually just ordered from Amazon... I like Amazon because of the speed and no question returns that can last almost two months.. especially with random tech like this... I have actually had better luck with Amazon then ordering direct from electronic stores around the world and direct from the manufacturer... Knock on wood... Thanks for the tip though... I will have a look at the site... In my case I am always ordering so much random tech for my experiments I would prefer it taking longer to receive hahah... So i get more time with my older equipment... Running out of space in my lab...
Mine came in approximately 5 weeks. I had some feedback/interference when running it off of a portable charger into a mixer, sounded like radio static in the background. Worked just fine with a traditional wall plug and even on it's own with the portable one, just not portable+mixer. So if you run into any feedback don't be discouraged. I'm excited to hear what you do with it!
Could you tell me how to change sounds? No other video explains it yet. One guy even seems clueless it has more than just the standard Theremin sound on his you tube video.
I do btw also already own a large MOOG theremin (I forget the model number but it's the large white torpedo shaped one) But I've ordered this for the large range of sounds in this.
Uploading a walkthrough video momentarily, sorry it took a few days! The hiss in the video is from the microphone, the theremin recorded rather nicely.
That's a toy with antennas as wiggly like a transistor radio from the 70ies and the the distances - hand to antenna - are way to short to precisely controll pitch and volume ... but why not a toy if you just want to play a bit - as a musical instrument I can recommend the Theremini. Played it on many gigs and it always attracted the looks of the crowd AND produced high quality sounds
@@THR-zf6ti I'm willing to take a stab at nearly anything that's cheap that has an output jack so I can run it through pedals to make some weird noises. Theremini would be cool but is way beyond my "goof around" budget. This thing is definitely na gimmick and I've used it to make some interesting noises but it's not playable to create accurate music. And I'm ok with that. I might look into the stylophone theremin which comes in around $100, but only has pitch control movement
@@nerdebynature Sure that's certainly very fine - I just wanted to comment that if the antennas are like in that "Theremin" you will have no chance to control the pitch somehow correctly - what I really love with the Theremini is the adjustable Pitch Correction so that the Theremini glides to the intended notes in the desired scale! Its pretty hard to play this instrument without it --- Have fun making music or noise anyway 🤪☮
So, it's been awhile; how are you liking Douk's dive into synthesis? Make anything interesting? How's it feel to use? Me and a mate are thinking of buying one each, so direct feedback would be nice! Also, still waiting for Behringer to drop new nooze about their joint, the Theremini, but I think theirs is supposed to be more like a traditional 'wood box' theremin. Thanks for posting the demo!
Thanks for checking this out! So, I have a lot of fun screwing around with it, but haven't made anything practical with it. I bought a separate standing antenna off of Amazon that I thought would be useful, but it has a long cord (it's meant to go on the roof of a boat or RV or something, and the entire cord counts as part of the antenna so I have to recalibrate it a lot. The bigger antenna didn't really help me with the accuracy. STILL, for under $50 I would recommend it to folks who like to fool around with electronic music gadgets. Some of the sounds are traditional thermin sounds, but some are just sampled sounds that moving your left hand triggers an on or off. And because it's a single sound, the lower notes are just the same sample played slower, which can have interesting sound results but far from perfect. I should do another video on this!
Do you have a link to this specific theremin on AliExpress? Any time I go to that site, they have a bunch of separate listings for the same device...so I dunno if some are junk and others are better. I want the exact one that you're using in this video.
Hi friend! The listing I purchased it under was called "TZT theremin" but the way most of the things on AliExpress work is warehouse style, I've always purchased from whoever has the cheapest price including shipping. I've never had any issues with electronics not functioning properly, the only issue being long delivery times. I see this one on AliExpress for $35.99 right now, or on Amazon for $56.99, so it's a matter of if saving $20 is worth 4 weeks of waiting to you, for me it usually is worth the wait to save the $$$
New one, screen shows it is picking up proximity. However, no sound. Volume up. Multiple cables/ output to speakers, headphones ... no sound. Very bummed!
@nerdebynature Oh man, I found out I was doing something dumb -- I was psyched it came and pulled it out of the box, not reading anything. And was just like: "Ok 1/8" connectors, cool - they must be for Antenna's to be on opposite sides, and --- well, then assumed other 1/8" jack must be audio out and had it going to speakers and.... needless to say it didn't work. :-) After a night's sleep, I looked at it again - saw it right away and it's working fine. Thx though! I'm psyched to mess with it now
@@Observer_Effect glad it worked out! It's not a professional device by any stretch of the imagination but that doesn't mean it isn't a fun/useful thing for experimentation!!
If you are exclusive after the theremin sounds and effect I would go with the stylophone when it comes out. I imagine it tracks a bit better than this one. I enjoy this one for the extra sounds of the traditional Asian instruments built in, but it triggers those more like a keyboard than a theremin if that makes sense?
The only reason I've ever wanted one of these is because of my love for Forbidden Planet, and would love to create something vaguely similar to that. I'm not a musician though, so do I stand a chance with it?
i bought a larger and thicker upright antenna, and a round AM antenna for the the volume and it works much much better but I'm still messing around with the actual settings portion to tweak it just right. if anyone has a tutorial on that I'd be extremely grateful because I don't understand half the setting and I do so I can hone this perfectly.
my goal is to have played like a full sized theremine, with both hand on the inside on the upright antenna. I've accomplished that but it still have to sort of do these odd motions, that are a tad inconsistent still, that are not typical in normal theremine playing
Oh neat! Where did you get the antenna replacements? I was interested in this myself. I haven't taken the time to try to make sense of the options in the settings as they seem poorly translated. I need to pick one sound and try to figure out what each item in the settings does.
@@jdangosilent5340 I tried playing around with some settings for about an hour tonight. I had fun toying around with it but didn't get much better about being able to find notes accurately.
@@nerdebynature I got the antennas on amazon in a pack that included both for 11.99 CAD. I played around with this for hours on end as well and watched way too many videos of people playing to try to match the classic sound. so this is what I landed on. let me know if you have a better plan. factory reset, settings, pitch sensitivity> turn all the way up, and keep it on the default sound. Then back out of the settings and head to the pitch settings and turn that up to 42. recalibrate. This is the closest I can find to being what a normal classic theremin sounds like, in my opinion
@@AtripMusica I was never able to figure out how to change the scale. There is a way to reduce the number of octaves it covers, but that was the only adjustment I was able to make. There are options in the menu to adjust sensitivity but I couldn't seem to make it work any better.

Byvpressing the top button you change which option the arrow is at. Then use the right button to open that menu. Then move within that new menu using the top and bottom buttons. I'm still figuring it out. Just got it today and found several youtubes about it.
This is a glorified toy. It is fun to play with, but it's barely compatible with headphones, let alone anything wise. I've had no luck improving the note accuracy, even with a much larger antenna for the right hand. But it was $50, and can make weird noisies and I can put it through pedals, so I'm satisfied!
It probably needs a larger antenna and higher voltage. Theres pluggins that allow you to translate base frequencies into midi signal so using one of those plugins this could easily be used for midi
There are adjustable controls, but the only one I figured out how to control is how to extend your lowest notes. The interface isn't complicated looking, but not well translated maybe? There are multiple things that say they adjust left hand controls for instance but none that say they adjust the right hand (and at least one of these does adjust the right hand)
@@jameslanclos568 It does look really cool!! I just got a stylophone beat for Christmas so I won't be grabbing their theremin right away, but it looks like it'll be worth buying!
