The Moog Theremini is a monophonic analog synthesizer manufactured by Moog Music and is a re-working on one of the oldest electronic instruments in history, the Theremin, created by Léon Theremin in 1929 and made popular as a source of atmospheric sound tracks for science fiction films. Similar to the Theremin, the Theremini does not require physical contact to play it. Rather, the device gauges the proximity of the performer's hands to determine the parameters of a performed note. The left hand controls the amplitude (volume), and the right hand controls the frequency (pitch). Unlike the original Theremin, this unit is designed to be easier to play, as it also features pitch correction. The antenna is removable and can be stored under the device. The unit also features a built in speaker, although quarter inch jacks are also included to connect to a loudspeaker or amplifier.

Patches

The unit features pre programmed 32 patches (wave or wavetable-based patches).
