Thereminator - Yonac
Put a theremin in your pocket! Modeled after he infamous instrument that lent spooky sounds to countless classic sci-fi and horror films, Theremin-ator allows you to evoke the theremin magic by using the touch or accelerometer interface on your iPhone. Simply move your finger horizontally to change pitch, and vertically to control the volume. If you want a really "airy" feel, hit "options" and hit "accel": now you can control pitch and volume by simply moving your iDevice around, touch-free.
With its one-button grid overlay (you can choose to see musical tones or frequencies) and accel-or-touch following crosshairs, Thereminator also makes one of the most notoriously challenging musical instrument slightly more...manageable. With a frequency range of 20 - 2020 Hz and a cool, retro-looking digital readout, dedicated zoom buttons, and a range scroller, you'll get hooked in no time.
Specs follow,
-- Six-and-a-half octave range (20Hz - 2020Hz)
-- Rich 44100 Hz, 16-bit CD-quality audio output
-- Four separate waveforms, giving different sounds
-- Manipulate sounds via touch screen or accelerometer
-- Accelerometer stabilizer button
-- Optional tone/frequency/volume grid overlay
-- Echo and tremolo effects
-- Portamento algorithm built-in for simulating quick "hand jerks" (no discrete "slides")
-- Increase or decrease pitch resolution
-- User-controlled pitch range
-- Live frequency and volume indicators
You can navigate using the "+" / "-" buttons and the scroller bar. Zooming in will fit a smaller interval of frequencies onscreen, allowing for a finer pitch control. Scrolling will change the beginning and ending frequencies.
Access such options as FX, accelerometer control and grid overlay thru the "Options" button. There, you can choose among the three different delay types; turn the grid overlay on or off (and choose whether you'd like to see frequencies or notes); switch accel on/off (also, switch the accel stabilizer...on by default); or switch the tremolo effect on.

So great! Really fun to play with, though I'm having a hard time making real music on it... just like a real theremin! Definitely five stars. (I also love Yonac's other Moog-inspired app: "miniSynth")

Coolest Instrument app I have tried so far! This app does not disappoint! Very cool sounds and very playable. I played this with a band the first day I got it and it sounded comparable to the actual theremin that was being played. More stuff like this, please!

Too Cool Even if you don't know it by name, you have probably heard a theremin before. There is something very primal about making sounds with this "instrument", and you don't need any musical training to enjoy it right away. I don't think you'll be disappointed. I'm not.

Fun thermin simulator. This is one of the "funnest" music apps in the store. Comes loaded with 4 different wave forms that greatly alter the sound. You can also add some reverb and tremolo to it. If you wanna be serious with it, you can hook it up to a stereo and jam away. It would work fine. Definitely recommended!

Rocks. This app rocks. It's practically identical to a Kaos Pad, except it sounds and functions like a Theramin (a small one that you control with your fingers, anyway).
One thing I'd like to see added is some sort of soft graphic that leaves color and bleeds away behind your finger as it moves. The user shoild also be able to choose the color and duration that it takes to "bleed" away. This way, the user can see where their finger has been, for more accurate playing. I guess this isn't a necessary addition since playing a Theramin involves moving your hands near metal poles and isn't always perfectly accurate, but I still think this would be an awesome addition.
Also the option to turn on or off a grid that overlays the tracking area. Again, not totally necessary, but it's be cool.

Very fun, needs polish This is so fun! I love being able to select the different wave forms, and sweep the pitch in different ways. You can definitely get the hang of it playing along to songs too. There are issues though that make it not perfect yet, for one, it takes nearly a second for it to respond to your touch if no other finger is already being held down, and swiping across the pitch slider is nearly totally unresponsive. Also there are audible clicks in the sound that ruin it for me. Smooth the sound and controls out, and this app would be solid.
