Super Spook Keys is designed to re-create the sound of a Theremin; it offers control using either a MIDI keyboard or the mouse to drag the spot across the 'chart' for more authentic Theremin style play.

Features:

  • Sine, sawtooth, triangle and pulse waves.
  • Variable key in and out response.
  • Added noise for more authentic sound.
  • Adjustable scaling for mouse-play tuning.
  • Spring on/off option.
  • Basic waveshaping.
  • MIDI CC assigned to grid cc#60(x) and cc#61(y).
  • Spring off on switch so only one version needed this time around.
  • Simple humanising effect (vary).
  • Variable LFO for vibrato and tremolo.
  • Pan, chorus (detuning), stereo spread and glide controls.
  • Filtered, ping-pong, stereo delay.
Made with SynthEdit

Why buy a theremin? I know they look cool, but this sounds almost indistinguishable.

Unless you're going to master waving your arms in the air, just get this.

Has a fun interface too.

For a free plugin, like its predecessor, Spook Keys, this baby simulates the monophonic sound of a waveform being controlled by pitch (Theremin) using MIDI notation. This version expands the ability to control the tone of the theremin-like sound outputted, along with an increased range of LFO's and whatnot, to make the sound more detailed and interesting.

The presets just show the basic functions of what this thing can sound like. Nothing too special, but compared to its predecessor it is definetly superior with the ability to use different sounds other than the sine wave.

The other great yet simple feature is the ability to preview the sound using just your mouse clicking inside the box to move around the dot. Very useful if you intend on doing a pseudo-live theremin sound recording using sound recording software instead of MIDI notes.

Now I'm not entirely sure yet, but if it were possible to go beyond the pitch limit given on this plugin, it would be great. (Make aliased noises) Otherwise there's no bugs here, and sounds like a theremin. Interface is clean and intuitive. Most importantly, it's free!

I use this plugin a lot for emulating theremin and ondes martenot. Really nice sound:
