The controls on the front panel of your Claravox
Centennial are laid out by section, or function,
in a way that is intuitive to both the experienced
theremin player and the avid synthesist. The top
section is home to the Pitch Antenna and Volume
Antenna controls; the lower section controls the
Timbre and Delay functions. In the middle is
the
PERFORMANCE
mode switch for select-
ing the
TRADITIONAL
or
MODERN
mode,
as well as the
MAIN OUTPUT
switch with
ACTIVE
and
MUTE
options. Further down
is the
(HEADPHONE OUT)
jack paired to
the
HEADPHONE VOLUME
knob, and the
POWER
switch.
TIP:
Parameters labeled in reverse-color text
are accessible only in the
MODERN
mode.
Volume Antenna Controls
Refer to Figure 14
In the theremin world, one hand is used to con-
trol the volume and articulation of each note.
Bringing the hand closer to the Volume Anten-
na (Horizontal Loop) will decrease the volume,
until eventually, with the hand inside the loop,
there is no sound. Moving the hand further away
will increase the volume. These two actions con-
trol the behavior of the Volume Antenna with
regard to the performer’s hand gestures.
Volume Antenna
Raising the value of this parameter, by rotating
the knob clockwise, will increase the sensitivity
of how the Volume Antenna responds to the
natural capacitance of the performer’s hand.
