Hello,

I'm going to be ordering my very first moog theremin. Probably going to go with the etherwave pro. I have a couple questions cause i am technilogically handicapped. First of all, what do i need with the theremin? I see they sell gig bags (which might come in handy), and 110 and 220volt power supply, amp, mic stand, cable etc. Like i said i am technically handicapped. Don't know anything about electronic instruments or anything. All i know is i like how they sound. I am a musician, and i know how to read, play music etc. But i know nothing about the theremin besides i like it. What i need to know is if i were to say play a gig tomorrow. What would i need to play? If i just turn on the theremin will it produce sound? Do i need to hook it up to an amp or would it just be quiet like say an acoustic guitar vs an electric guitar? Using common sense I'm thinking just using the theremin by itself would produce sound but quiet (ideal for practice), and to actually play with instruments you would need an amp for more volume. Also, can you hook up any amp (say a guitar amp or something?) How does everything work? Like do you hook up the power supply to the theremin to the amp or what? Can you hook up different effects peddles to your theremin to get even stranger sounds? I know this is alot of questions but like i said i don't know anything about electronic music. If anyone could explain it or possibly point me in the right direction (book maybe) i would greatly appreciate it! Thanks a lot.

You would need to amplify it.

you need an amp, but the etherwave pro has a headphone output.

Check out the vido of Kip Rosser on this page: http://electro-music.

Thanks to everyone.

I like the Barbetta system: Lightweight, clean and loud.
