I bought the kit but I want to know how to modify it, inserting the jack.

@TheRealTobobias

There's a schematic showing the mod at the bottom of the web page linked in the description. If you need more info email me and I'll try to help you.

I think the po po could pull someone over with that thing mounted to their cars. It sounds just like a siren. Pull over the theremin cops are coming.

MarbleMad is unavailable to comment as he is currently being held on remand, accused of crimes against music.

On second thought, after reading more comments, maybe it was the group "Project Pimento's" rendition of the Star Trek theme at the beginning; their thereminist Robby Virus is excellent and one of the few capable of such good accuracy.

[MarbleMad]

Yes as I mentioned earlier this is Project Pimento's version. Robby Virus is a wonder ad compliments Lola Bombay's beautiful voice wonderfully. BTW I in no way intended anyone to think that was the device playing. Did anyone think that? no. thought not. As for the 'toy' accusation. What's wrong with toys :) I would describe it as an inspirational toy. Something a musician can carry around and fool around with in fun and creative ways. It IS a fully functional musical instrument though.

fat people are annoying. we have to be. noone will pay any attention to us otherwise.

[techstormster]

watch at 2:19 into the video. That would be the future Nintendo DS. ... but seriously congrats on building the most annoying thing ever and showing us how to build it and annoy everybody in the world with this.

@MarbleMad

[mrgreanjeans]

[ravenoftheredsky]

@MarbleMad Congratulations.

I dunno about the circuit, but I'd recommend that MF-102 to anybody! I'd be lost without mine.^_^
