Synthrotek Synthesizer & Workstation Keyboards Editorial Review

The SYNTHROTEK Optical Theremin DIY Kit offers a unique twist on the traditional theremin design by using photo resistors instead of antennas and body capacitance for frequency and volume control. The build process is relatively simple, although users will need to figure out how to mount the circuit board and parts themselves. One major drawback of this kit is the lack of proper instructions. Instead of providing a physical instruction manual, users are directed to access online instructions. However, many reviewers found these online instructions to be incomplete and confusing, with missing installation instructions for certain parts. This makes it difficult for beginners to successfully complete the kit. In terms of performance, opinions are mixed. Some users praised the functionality of the kit, stating that it works better than most small capacitive theremins. However, others expressed frustration with the limited range and difficulty in getting the kit to work properly. Despite the issues with instructions and performance, the general Consensus is that the SYNTHROTEK Optical Theremin DIY Kit is a cheap DIY option that produces a plain and unfiltered sound. Users found that with some additional amplification, the kit could deliver worthwhile results. Overall, this kit is not recommended for beginners due to the lack of proper instructions. However, for those with electronics experience and a desire for an affordable theremin option, the SYNTHROTEK Optical Theremin DIY Kit may be worth Considering.
