Moog Music's description of the Moog Theremini theremin with pitch correction

Theremini.

The Theremini is a reimagination of one of the oldest electronic musical instruments, and Bob Moog’s first love – the Theremin. Its design fuses the experience of playing an instrument you don’t actually touch, with a powerful sound engine derived from Moog’s award winning synthesizer, Animoog.

The Theremini guarantees immediate success to anyone at any skill level or physical ability, while also providing new ways to experiment with music, education, and gestural control.

Assistive pitch correction allows each player to adjust the instrument's level of playing difficulty. When activated the Theremini will play every note in a selected scale perfectly, making it impossible to play a wrong note. As the assistive pitch correction is decreased, more expressive control of pitch and vibrato becomes possible. When deactivated, the Theremini will perform as a traditional Theremin and there is absolutely no pitch correction.

A built-in tuner supplies real-time visual feedback of each note as it is played, as well as its proximity to perfection. This is useful for correcting a user's playing position, and for educating younger players about pitch and scales.

The Presets section of the Theremini allows you to select from 32 wave or wavetable-based presets, store a selected scale, set and recall a specified playing range, and specify settings for the included stereo delay and more.

Recessed in the top of the Theremini is a compact speaker perfect for private rehearsal and quick setup anywhere. Silent rehearsal is also possible via the front panel headphone jack. Simply plug in ear-buds or headphones and the built-in speaker becomes silent.

For live performance and gestural control, the rear panel of the Theremini features stereo line level audio outputs, a Pitch CV output with selectable range, and a mini USB jack for MIDI connectivity to the free Theremini Mac / Windows software editor and Theremini iPad editor.

A built-in tuner displays each note as it is played - educating new musicians about pitch and scales.

VISUAL FEEDBACK AND EDUCATION: Featuring a completely hands-free experience combined with a powerful sound engine derived from Moog’s award winning synthesizer, Animoog.

    Product Overview
    Living up to its name, the Moog Theremini is a tiny theremin based on the Animoog synth engine. Quantization is the name of the game with the Theremini, giving you the ability to play completely unassisted or completely quantized so that it's essentially impossible to play a wrong note. A built-in tuner shows in real time how close your pitch is to perfection, and a selection of 32 wave or wavetable patches can be stored in your Theremini.
