Here is my EWS Authentic Classic Analog Sound Mod  $100

Can be added or removed from the EWS in 30 seconds, bypasses the entire Pitch side including the EPSE01

- This is the complete pitch side just needing volume control added, elsewhere on my pages -

A TRS 1/4" jack is added to the EWS, three easy top side connections, "No" EWS PCB board removal.

- If you have never played or built any other theremin design, this should not be your first! -
If you are a seasoned electronic engineer, please go elsewhere, you will over think this and screw it up!


- The electronics are basic but success does not come easy, health has retired me so you are mostly on your own -

Beyond circuitry the beautiful theremin voice comes through a finely tuned window, not everyone will figure it out.


Phoenix Electrodeum Features:

Idea Pitch Field linearity up to 6 octaves similar to the Moog Epro.
The Classic Old School Sound, not a simple whistle or nasal sound.
Drift resistant in normal indoor use, user balance adjustable 
Pitch Preview with on board amp

Output Mono/Stereo selectable for computer TRS input.
Mic to Line level Output adjust
Static Discharge Proof
Audio Out - mute switch

Build the Phoenix/Etherwave Standard Mod

* It is easier to adapt to the EWS than re-invent the wheel *

With two boards this can be a Pitch/Volume Theremin
 (instructions included)

To build this project properly you must use the C-253 Spring for the tuned 
β Pitch Antenna as every part has unique purpose.

For a free PCB "send me a picture" of your soldering & build skills along with your EWS pic

This is all too important.

Important: 2 Transistors, 600 Ohm Transformer, Opto VO618A, 2 x 8 Pin IC sockets

C-253 Spring, 3300 uh 500 ma choke, 2 x IF Transformers, 4 x 5 mm Terminals 

These part are critical for The Voice & ideal pitch field linearity

- Do not order parts until you receive my package, remove my board mounted parts from Mouser list -

(The C-253 Becker Electrode)


- The EWS can sound like these two videos & more -

This was recorded 2.4.19 by Valery Shamarin of St Petersburg Russia
It is sitting on top of the box I shipped it in.

* This is Not a Beginner Electronic Project *

Only you know your skill level. You will be mostly on your own. This webpage is to show you what I have learned over my 20 year theremin journey. I am not here to be your teacher and you build at your own risk. If you follow my directions perfectly and do not substitute anything you will have built the finest theremin ever conceived in response and sound. With an open mind you just might discover something new. The theremin is a never ending journey.

* I will not be able to help most troubleshoot *
I have a date with destiny
