How-To: Mini-Theremin kit mods

gakkenthereminmod_cc.jpg Randy shares steps for adding two key upgrades to the Mini-Theremin kit

True, there are already directions to do both of these things in the accompanying magazine, but what sets this how-to apart is that it is in English. If like me you can’t read Japanese and unlike me, you couldn’t figure out what to do from the pictures alone, this should help. Basically, what I am doing is adding an audio out jack and also a bigger, sturdier telescoping antenna. This is a great improvement on the original.

I’ve added an 1/8″ jack to mine as well, definitely a great idea for those who also own the Gakken SX-150 synth. Once ‘jacked’ the mini can act as a handsfree controller for the SX by way of its control input. Hmmm … think I’ll be adding one of theses sturdier antennae as well. Read the full instructable for much mini modding infos.
