PITCH ANTENNA LOW NOTE:
Press SETUP and bring your hand
back towards your body, far from the
Pitch antenna. This will determine
your hand position for playing the
lowest selected note. The display will
count down, and then prompt you to
proceed to the next step.
VOLUME ANTENNA MUTE LEVEL:
Press SETUP and place your hand close
to the Volume antenna, but without
touching it. This will determine your
hand position for muting the Theremini
(the lowest volume position). The
display will count down, and then
prompt you to proceed to the next step.
VOLUME ANTENNA MAXIMUM LEVEL:
Press SETUP and lift your hand up,
away from the volume antenna. This will
determine the hand position for playing
the Theremini at its maximum level. (If
you keep the physical space between
the mute and maximum levels short,
it becomes easier to perform ‘snappy’
staccato notes. A larger volume range
makes it easier to perform expressive
volume swells.) The display will count
down, and then prompt you to proceed
to the next step.
When this step is complete, the Theremini is fully calibrated.
