Open.Theremin.UNO Housing

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

Some ideas and first prototypes of housings for the Open.Theremin.UNO.

Open.Theremin is an open source and collaborative project. So please share your ideas and designs.

Solid wood housing. Looks so nice.

 

Inspiration for the laser cut wood housing...

and first design studies by Roman Jurt:

 

First prototype of the new design - is this it?

 

This is the solid wood box theremin built by Uli Beyenbach. Thanks for sharing.

Micro USB connector :
The Arduino Leonardo has Micro USB I guess and this should work as well...

I love your new design. I would be interested in using the Micro USB connector instead of the one you are using. Since almost all phones use the micro connector for power or transfer to computer it would be smaller and very compatible.

I would also love to buy one when available.

Just thinking... It would be pretty cool to be able to take a vocal track, put it in a DAW, hit play and use a Theremin to do on-the-fly autotuning.

I wondered if a rotary encoder would be preferable to the control potentiometer you've added to the Arduino analog in. (maybe just a personal preference).
Please also add me to the list of those wanting to buy a kit once it's ready.


As the design is now it should be easily possible to add an encoder instead of the potentiometer (signal going to Arduino Pin). Will consider this in the programming. Thanks.

so....when can we buy it??

I just sent of the file to make a first prototype of the OpenTheremin.UNO with arduino. I will let you know when I have a small batch to share and also make a new call. Tried to include all of your ideas - if you have ideas on the housing or the software please share and make open.theremin.uno even better.

Hi Urs,

Instead of TL072 / TL074, I would recommend to use LM358 / LM324 because we'll have asymmetric power voltage. E.g. the TL072 works best with symmetric power source.


Cool, didn't know that. Will do that.
Thanks.

Hi Urs.
Have you considered design it as a whole pcb, not a shield. I mean: integrate in the pcb the atmega processor with resonator and other components.
Design of ladyada is good to start:

Thank you and waiting to receive news.
