MicroKits Theremin

For someone who would rather build the strange instrument than buy a speaker.

Oddity 1 is familiar. 5 is genuinely strange.

A solderless kit for an instrument you play by moving your hands through an electric field. Breadboard, parts, batteries, and a booklet are in the box.

Three reasons

  1. No soldering. The parts press into a breadboard, and the booklet checks the work as you go.
  2. The sound changes because your hand changes the capacitance. That is the whole performance.
  3. The link is the MicroKits kit, model TM2, batteries included.
