  • great idea! you wrote the software yourself? is it compatible to other gfx-tablets?

  • on windows, wintab compatible tablet may work like wacom

  • The Swan by Saint-Saens

  • thanks, strip is just a paper for visual guidance of keyboard image. sound comes from my simple PureData patch, reading pen tip position and pressure corresponding to pitch and volume.

  • If you say it's fake, just say why you think it's fake!

    Check livelab dk for related software which is also free! Check this and then come and say it's fake...

  • @pauljs75 Wacom uses inductive coupling while the original Theremin was based on capacitive effects. But yes there is some similarity. Well played!

  • Interestingly enough, the tablet actually uses a similar technology to that originally developed by Theremin himself. The stylus is actually a form of low power transponder.

    So this usage seems fitting. :)

    And yes they are the best tablet on the market. (BTW, does anyone know when Wacom's patents will run out? I'd like to see some prices go down. But for now, I ended up buying used. And even those aren't cheap.)

  • im going to build one of these today...but mines gonna have an amp lfo like the real thing :P

  • i don't get it?

  • Nice.

  • oh dude, when i get a wacom....totally doing this!!!!

  • Hi, nice attempt with the tablet. I am also a Wacom player and would like to gather and discuss with people of this community. Please, tell me if you're interested. -Nicolas

  • what is the name of the music piece?

  • jajajajaja, muy bueno, otra opcion de la tableta wacom
