If you want to know which of all "theremin" applications is the most advanced it is not a standalone application it is one of the many facets of SunVox hidden in one of the menus.
Always felt that just the Theremin in SunVox is worth more than the price of SunVox.
It is hard to find a more versatile instrument.
What you can do with this instrument is to be able to take any of the modules plus effects and record them in real time polyphonically with pitch bends / slides / volume control into the sequencer / song that you are working on. Most amazing to me is that it works so good using samples... always fascinated that they do not glitch- using the same samples in the sequencer and they get cut off you get the glitch but using the Theremin no.
For you that do not know and have a feeling that even many SunVox users do not know or have explored the possibilities of it, here is your chance to explore, record and present your findings / recordings to the world.
Because one SunVox user that is going under the name of Nopcorp has taken on the responsibility to organize a contest using only the Theremin of SunVox.
So there is no prize but there would be exposure to your music through Nopcorp and surely Mr. Nightradio will post some of it!
Finally the contributions will be posted here at Musical Android during the contest and will also post the links to the music of the contributors which means that it would have been seen the day of the posting by around 700-1000 people plus the views coming later.
There would also be a posting in the end with all the contributions for people to vote on their favorite.So it adds up to a humongous bunch of entities.
The winner would also have a more permanent posting under the Contest banner. So in this day and age when it is hard to get people to hear your music think that this is a pretty good incentive to participate!
Lets not forget that if you are like me that only have used the Theremin occasionally or never at all will have gotten the bug and will probably incorporate more live recordings into whatever song you are working on in SunVox which is of course excellent in this day and age of static sequencing.
Or to start to use it as a standalone instrument!!!

Remember that here it is the Computer version of SunVox being used which has the disadvantage of not being able to use the Theremin polyphonically as you would have on your device!
