Moog Unveils Technological Breakthroughs for Those People Who Hang Out in Guitar Stores
I know y'all trust me to keep you up to date new developments in theremin technology and politics, so I couldn't let you down by failing to post these videos demonstrating the new Moog Etherwave Plus, which can now be used to control various parameters of other synthesizers. Watch, it is extremely sweet:
You can even use it to control your Moog brand guitar:
But of course what I want to know is, could you use this theremin to control the sound of another theremin? Could you use it to pitchshift the output from a CD player—so that by inverting the melody, you would make a Clara Rockmore CD sound like a single droning note surrounded by wild piano pitch-bends? Oh whoops did I just BLOW YOUR MIND?
Somebody buy me one.
