The Moog Theremini is the little brother of one of the first electronic instruments, the Theremin. The tones are elicited from the instrument by intuitive gesture control and supported by a built-in tuner and pitch-correction system, which resolves existing or self-programmed scales in various intensities.
Overview:
Pitch Correction System with programmed scales and key notes
Built-in tuner for learning pitch and scales
32 wavetable-based presets
Pitch CV output with selectable range
User selectable scale and root tone
Stereo ping-pong delay
Detachable pitch antenna
Built-in adapter for positioning on a stand
Rubberized feet
Kensington lock
Operation and connections of the Theremini
The built-in LCD display provides immediate visual feedback of the notes played, so you can remember reference notes and their corresponding hand position. You can choose from 32 preset sounds and assign each sound its own scale with a changeable key note. The Theremini has a headphone jack, as well as 2 mono jack outputs. A speaker is built into the Theremini so you can listen to the Theremini without additional amplification. MIDI data can be exchanged via a mini USB port.
Hitting the right note on the Moog Theremini
At the highest level of pitch quantization, only the preset notes of the corresponding scale are playable. The lower the pitch quantization is set, the more detuning and vibrato can be played as well, making the sound more lively. In the lowest setting the Theremini reacts like a conventional theremin and the analog oscillator controls the pitch without help. Thus, a glissando is then also possible.
