Moog Theremini Theremin with Assistive Pitch Correction

Moog Theremini Theremin with Assistive Pitch Correction

A modern reimagining of one of the oldest electronic instruments — fusing the magic of touchless gestural performance with an Animoog-based sound engine, 32 presets, and dialable pitch correction for players of any skill level.

A Smart Fit For You

The Theremini is the rare instrument that's genuinely fun on day one and still rewarding years later. If you've always been fascinated by the haunting, otherworldly voice of the theremin but worried you'd never get the pitch right, this is the instrument that solves that. Dial in the assistive pitch correction and notes lock to a selected scale — it's literally impossible to play a wrong note while you learn the gestures and develop control of your hands. As your skill grows, ease the correction down for more expressive vibrato and pitch slides, or turn it off entirely for a fully traditional, free-ranging theremin experience. The sound engine is derived from Moog's Animoog, so you have 32 wavetable-based presets that range from classic theremin sine waves to lush, modern synth voices, plus a built-in stereo delay, a tuner with real-time visual feedback, and a top-mounted speaker for quick setup anywhere.

Key Highlights

  • Assistive pitch correction dialable from 0% (traditional theremin) to 100% (every note in scale)
  • Selectable scales and root notes for setting up the instrument to fit any song
  • Animoog-derived sound engine with 32 wave or wavetable-based presets
  • Built-in tuner with real-time LCD visual feedback for every note played
  • Built-in stereo delay with selectable lengths (short, medium, long, or off)
  • Top-mounted compact speaker for instant play-anywhere convenience
  • Front-panel 1/8" headphone jack with auto-mute on the internal speaker
  • Two line-level audio outputs on the rear panel
  • Pitch CV output with selectable range for controlling external synthesizers
  • Mini USB jack for MIDI connectivity in both directions
  • Variable playing range — set and recall any note span you like
  • Per-preset storage for scale, root, range, and delay settings
  • Free Theremini editor software for advanced settings and preset arrangement
  • Kensington security slot for studio or classroom installations
  • Original design by Moog Music, continuing the legacy of Dr. Robert Moog

Why You'll Love It

Features

32 Animoog-based presets, 0–100% pitch quantization, selectable scales and root notes, built-in tuner with LCD feedback, onboard stereo delay, internal speaker, headphone jack, dual line outs, pitch CV output, USB MIDI, and a free software editor.

Advantages

It meets you where you are. Beginners can lock to a scale and start sounding musical in minutes, intermediate players can dial in just enough correction to keep performances tight, and advanced players can turn correction off entirely for full traditional expression — all on the same instrument.

Benefits

You actually get to enjoy playing a theremin instead of fighting it. Beyond that, the CV and MIDI outputs turn the Theremini into a gestural controller for your modular rig or DAW, opening creative doors that go well beyond classic theremin sounds.

Great Fit For

  • First-time theremin players who want to sound musical immediately
  • Electronic musicians and synth players using it as a gestural CV/MIDI controller
  • Performing artists who want a unique, eye-catching stage instrument
  • Composers and sound designers exploring spooky, ambient, or cinematic textures
  • Educators teaching pitch, scales, and gestural musicianship
  • Modular synth and Eurorack enthusiasts looking for an unconventional controller
  • Anyone fascinated by classic theremin sound but wanting modern playability

Sound and Feel

Playing the Theremini feels like nothing else. Your pitch hand moves toward and away from the vertical antenna to set notes, and your volume hand floats over the horizontal loop to swell or duck the dynamics — the whole instrument responds to gesture, not touch. The Animoog-derived engine gives you 32 voices ranging from pure sine-wave classic theremin tones to lush wavetable pads, evolving textures, and synth leads, and the onboard stereo delay adds the right amount of space without needing outboard pedals. Set the pitch correction high while you learn the gestures, then ease it down as your hands gain confidence — you'll be surprised how quickly you can move from locked-to-scale playing to expressive vibrato and slides. The built-in tuner gives you live visual feedback the whole time, which is genuinely useful for learning the spatial relationships between notes.
