## Description

#### What is it?
This is played with gestures in the air like a theremin and can output:


- MIDI over USB (now a USB-C socket)
- MIDI over TRS (a TRS/5-pin DIN lead (type A/Korg) gives MIDI over 5-pin DIN)
- audio (Now built-in and not an optional extra)

The 'Advance' model has 


- screen and menu system on-device
- quantisation
- on-screen display of nearest / target note

(see separate listing for e-ther 'Classic' without these extra features)

#### Why did you make it?
I would love a real Theremin and the idea of something pocket-sized and super versatile appealed to me. I thought this might be possible with distance sensors and yes - it works really well!

#### What makes it special?
e-ther's sensors don't use visible light and therefore aren't affected by changes in ambient light. They measure distance very accurately (invisible, eye-safe) making e-ther very predictable and consistent. 

The MIDI output means that you can use it in a variety of scenarios - with electronic instruments or 
DAW. There is some configurability of the vertical control which can send expression or modwheel messages.
