Moog Etherwave Theremin - An Instrument, Not A Toy

Advantages: Easy to pick up, gorgeous appearance, solid build, able to play microtonal pieces, great sound.
Disadvantages: Not having to build it yourself means you miss out on knowing the exact workings. High price.

Review of Moog Etherwave Theremin In Standard Ash Cabinet

Many original sounds. Sample this up.

Advantages: Great sounds. Very unique.
Disadvantages: Sometimes seems out of tune. Pre midi.

I acquired this from a friend who moves furniture along with an out of tune Farfisa organ for $200.00 then traded the Farfisa in at the local music shop for $200.00 making the Prodigy basically free. I see them for $500.00 commonly. I really l ...
