Lesson 42
The Xtremes
Working at the Threshold, Part 1

WATCH THIS VIDEO IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES
TO YOUR THEREMIN.
 
This is the first in the series known as “Extremes.” As such, they’re the most challenging
lessons in this course, with each one a) building on everything from the the preceding
lessons, and b) each lesson becoming increasingly difficult. But first…
 
A WARNING: This lesson describes in great detail the process of making an internal
adjustment to the theremin that dramatically changes the location of the “threshold” — the
point above the volume loop right at the edge of silence and sound. Once this adjustment
is made, it may be difficult to reverse it easily. You make this adjustment at your own risk, so…
 
That said, the adjustment maximizes your potential for success in all of the tutorials that
comprise The Xtremes. So, you may want to consider rolling up your sleeves and getting
into your THEREMIN’S GUTS to make an adjustment. We’ll cover the Standard Etherwave,
Etherwave Pro, and the B3 Series. Those of you with other makes of theremins may be able
to discern how to do it once you’ve seen this.
