this is really, really good! it's functional, intuitive, and the customisation options are really unique. (the random TTS... emoji.... noise setting?? very Good) it's such a fun funky tool & it sounds lovely!
only (minor) note is the flashing chords: they're quite distracting and the speed at which the colors flash make the text hard to read. a soft/slow RGB colour shift might have the desired effect & be easier to read (also HOW did i just find this, i've been looking for web-instrument stuff like this on here SPECIFICALLY for AGES D: )
Thank you for the kind comment userfkaobi!
Note taken on the annoyingness of the flashing colors. Having built this pretty early on in my coding career, the source code is an unmaintainable mess and I don't think I'm ever going to attempt to dig through it and make any updates, but I do have plans to build a brand new theremin app from scratch. If you have any feature requests for the new one please feel free to tell me. The new one will definitely have a more toned-down interface 😉
If you enjoy this kind of thing you might also enjoy this one I made too 👉One Hand Band
