i recently purchased the etherwave standard as well as the amp for it. now, i am not exactly the most knowledgeable guy regarding electronic instruments, so this question could either have an obvious answer that all of you will laugh at me about, or could be a decent question. like i said, i have no idea. anyway, is it possible to use a sustain pedal for a keyboard on a theremin? a guitar pedal i think would work too, but it seems like you could get feedback from that. i seems like it would be a cool effect to do harmonies with, but like i said, i have no idea what i am doing. soooooo, if you could help me out that would be cool.
Yes, you can use all sorts of effects on your theremin. I like using an octave pedal that gives me a pitch one and two octaves below the main pitch. It really fills out the sound. I also use a stereo analog delay through a stereo P.A. that makes the sound incredibly wide. Others you harmony generators and echos to create multiple parts.
Friend, there are no rules! Try it out and see what you can do with it. Experiment.
