I used a magnifying glasses and followed PAiA's instructions like a slave. When at last I hooked it up - it worked instantly - like right out of the box. I was amazed with myself at first - then I realised how easy this project really is to perform.

The Thremax sounds very well with it's extreme range of pitch and the trimpots makes it easy to choose a suitable range for playing. It's timbre-control is a simple yet effective way to finetune the sound to your liking. The fact that it also have a lot of CV's out as well as Gate/trig would make it ideal for a MIDI-controller as well.

Imagine yourself applying vibrato to a synth by the mere shake of a hand close to the antennae.

I find the Theremax-anteanne a little thin and I'm not a great fan of the lectern case. I've bought some thick copperbolt for new antennaes and I'm building a proper housing for it.

With the Theremax John Simonton prooves that he's not at all standing back for Bob Moog.The bang for buck ratio on the PAiA Theremax is awesome. He's way ahead of Bob on that...

..think I'll try the new 9700 Modular as well :-)
