Theremin Schematics

Theremin World - Schematics Tech & DIY / Schematics Theremin Schematics Here's a list of various types of theremin schematics. You'll find tube theremins, transistor theremins, optical theremins, beginner, and advanced projects. If you're not sure where to start, we suggest reading through our theremin construction forum to get an idea of which schematic might be best for you. Note, we've moved schematics and technical information for RCA theremins and the Keppinger theremins to their own pages.

Step by step instructions, schematics, and a demonstration video are provided. optical theremin LEGO photo theremin Build Squaremin as a form of theremin Added by: Jason 7/21/2009 An optical theremin using IR sensors to control pitch and octave (instead of pitch and volume). optical theremin Clara Rockmore's Theremin Schematic Added by: Jason 5/12/2008 Hand-drawn by Bob Moog, these schematics will give you insight into Prof. Theremin's original design concepts. schematic page 1 , schematic page 2 . Also available are the technical notes Bob Moog wrote while working on her theremin. Adrian Bontenbal also provided some additional tech notes on this circuit with details that are hard to make out from Bob's schematic as well as some bonus circuits. Clara Rockmore tube theremin Schematics Build a Pocket Theremin on the Cheap Added by: Jason 4/7/2008 This short article from Popular Science shows you how to build a small optical theremin for under $20 in about 3 hours. optical theremin photo theremin Alexander Zeyliger's theremin project from CalTech Added by: Jason 2/21/2005 This person designed and completed a theremin for a class project at CalTech. He's graciously provided both a writeup with excellent technical information and schematics for his project. I finally got the original postscript files back, and they are available below in GZIP format: schem.zip - schematic, ~9k paper.zip - writeup, ~19k The Theremin, by Robert Moog Added by: Jason 2/21/2005 This tube theremin article originally appeared in Radio and Television News in 1954. You might have trouble finding all the parts to build this theremin today, but the article is also an excellent source of technical information. tube theremins Bob Moog Hand-Drawn Schematic (.GIF, ~58k) Added by: Jason 2/21/2005 Long before even the first version of the Theremin Home Page, John Honniball from the University of the West of England faxed me this hand-drawn theremin schematic after I posted a request to a USENET newsgroup. I analyzed it with fellow engineering students and learned a lot about basic theremin design from this simple circuit. It is a "U.K.-ified" version of a 60's Moog theremin design.

University of Glasgow Online Theremin Exhibit Added by: Jason 2/21/2005 Look here for photos and schematics of two custom-made theremins. Both analog and digital models were built and are discussed on this site. I get a lot of questions about their digital theremin, so I've started compiling a FAQ . Feel free to contribute! Big Briar Etherwave Mute Switch Added by: Jason 2/21/2005 Ever wanted to get rid of the "pop" when you turn on your Etherwave? Arthur Harrison has developed a mute-switch for the Etherwave that will do just that. It also adds a "mute status" light which doubles as a power-on light. Here's the schematic. Don't forget to browse the rest of Art's great site!
