Instrument/Effect
What is it? (P1) Theremin	How have you been using it? (M1) With both hands, to control the pitch & volume.
What are the limitations? (D1) It only has one tone, it's essentially fretless so you have to make out the notes by ear, unless it displays the notes for you on a screen.	How could you use it effectively in performance? (D1) To use it as a transition either at the start or end of a track/DJ set.
Can you think of any examples of it being used already by other performers? Leon Theremin Lydia Kavina

Instrument/Effect
What is it? (P1) Roland Voice Transformer VT-3	How have you been using it? (M1) Both hands, to control various aspects such as pitch, reverb, etc.
What are the limitations? (D1) It limits your movement and you may need someone else to assist you (i.e. they play an instrument while you mess around) in order to ease the work load.	How could you use it effectively in performance? (D1) It can completely change the mood & setting of the atmosphere, it's just dependent on what kind you want to set.

Instrument/Effect
What is it? (P1) TC-Helicon VoiceLive Touch	How have you been using it? (M1) Both hands, constantly adjusting & combining the settings i.e. reverb, delay, pitching the octave up/down, looping.
What are the limitations? (D1) It's heavy & because of that you must place it on a microphone stand so you can't move it around with you on stage without having a hard time.	How could you use it effectively in performance? (D1) You can essentially create your own ensemble of singers especially through the looping feature & also because you can mix & match the voice settings so each setting can play a certain role.
