				Could anybody give me some advice about converting CV from a Theremin into a MIDI controller?
 There are lots of ways to convert MIDI to CV, but methods for going the other direction are hard to find.

				I believe you could use the 1/4" input on a Roland GI-10 for that purpose. The GI-10 allows monophonic input received from a microphone or a guitar cable to be converted into midi. You can find the GI-10 used for about $100 to $150 on eBay. Since a guitar cable essentially sends a voltage for conversion into midi, it seems that the CV from a theremin ought to be able to be converted in the same manner.

				Maybe you could have a look here  (I worked for them, mind, so I won't inter more in the subject, save it's serious stuff) There was at least a canadian and another french companies doing gizmos in the same direction. Got to search and come back to tell you (these were serious too, too bad I can't remember the names). A quick googling gave me:ElectrovoceSmartcontrollerThe cool guys at Kenton's  (serious stuff too I know of)Paia … Watch for the Modular analogue synths manufacturers, Doepfer , Analogue Systems  at least have such modules. Anyway, before buying, I'd ask for specifics about your peculiar instruments, continuous CV brings in issues not all converters can handle.
