Adaptation and modification of a Theremin system

A musical instrument comprising:

• sound generating circuitry having a pitch input, a volume input, and an audio output, the circuitry further including user interface controls for adjusting one or more of volume, pitch, waveform, or timbre;
• a housing containing the sound generating circuitry and allowing access to the pitch input, the volume input, the audio output, and the user interface controls;
• a volume antenna electrically connected to the volume input;
• a pitch antenna electrically connected to the pitch input;
• an actuator electrically connected to the audio output, wherein the actuator provides an additional input to the output sound;
• wherein the volume antenna connector allows pivoting along a single axis or multiple axes.
