Sleek Modernized Electronic Instruments

Moog’s Theremini represents a thoughtful modernization of the theremin, which is considered to be one of the earliest electronic instruments. This iteration of the instrument is engineered to make the traditionally challenging art of touchless performance accessible to a broad audience.

Moog’s Theremini retains the core, hands-free experience of its predecessor, where sound is generated by moving one’s hands near two antennas. The modernized instrument stands out by integrating a sophisticated digital sound engine borrowed from Moog’s acclaimed Animoog synthesizer. 

The most significant feature for prospective users is the inclusion of an assistive pitch correction system, which allows the instrument to snap every note to a selected scale. This effectively eliminates the possibility of playing off-key. This functionality can be gradually reduced to introduce more expressive nuances like vibrato, or turned off entirely for a traditional, uncorrected theremin experience. To further support learning and development, a built-in visual tuner provides real-time feedback on the player’s hand position and the resulting pitch accuracy.
