Theremini - Theremin with Pitch Correction, CV Out, Built-in Tuner and Speaker, Animoog Synthesizer Sound Engine with 32 Presets and LCD Screen

I AM ADDICTED ALREADY!!! My Theremini arrived in decent packaging with a double box. The primary product box has an easy quick set up single sheet, which made it super fast to set up and start making noise. I have read reviews complaining about this unit not holding calibration, so I will say that I did not have that issue at all. HOWEVER, this is a very sensitive instrument, so remember that large metal objects and even your own body can change the temperament of the various settings, which may mean that you will have to re-calibrate if you change the voice preset. The calibration is super easy to do though, so stay calm and respect the instrument. The theremin is VERY difficult to play, if you are looking to play something structured and musical. But it is also super EASY to play, if you want to experience a constant relationship between your body and sound. This requires one to be very aware of the body and to use intuitive movement to relate your body to sound. It is almost like using dance to inspire sound rather than using sound to inspire dance. Because there are so many presets to experiment with, it is possible to make beautiful improvisational sounds. The other part I love is the display shows you your pitch and allows you to change your root note as well as to set scales to things like "gypsy, spanish, arabian, egyptian" so that the scale has that preset feeling to it. The options are ENDLESS! I just LOVE this unit. And for the very good price point, this unit allows the new theremin student to experience classic theremin playing, as well as just have a great time with improvising sounds. THANK YOU MOOG! I do recommend the use of headphones for those who do to torture others living in the home. But also because when others in your home hear how interesting and fun the unit is to play with, they all want a turn!!! HAHAHA.

I got the thermin bug by accident when I came across "those" videos...same as probably everyone else has watched many times. I chose the Theremini because I thought it would at least be a fun introduction to the theremin, and I could judge whether I would ever want a "real" theremin. I do really like the Theremini, and gave it five stars because it is good at what it does. I am hoping to use it in my writing and recording work eventually. I am a composer, mostly for harp, but have done a lot of piano, clarinet and Native American flute writing as well. I thought theremin with harp would be fantastic if I should actually learn to play. I realized right away that I needed to improve the "theremin" sound. I toyed with the idea of buying an amp, but instead hooked it up to my audio interface (to my studio computer) so it plays out of my good speakers. Immediate, awesome improvement in the sound. The bonus is, I can record it as an audio track directly into Sonar, to mix with harp tracks, etc. That is...if I DO get good enough at actually playing it. The theremini makes practicing more fun because of all of the experimentation you can do. And you can turn the dial so it hits the notes more easily, which is helpful in the beginning for sure. The editing software works fine. If you like the chromatic scale and are tired of endless turning the dial to get it when playing some of your favorite "presets," you can use the editing software to save it so that the chromatic scale automatically comes up when you go to a particular preset. You can also replace any of the presets on your theremini with others. You can find dozens of presets for the Theremini, load them into the software, and put them on the Theremini if you so desire. If I can only learn to play, this instrument will be very useful in my work.

I was so worried when these sold out after a character on the show Severance played one. After having this in my wishlist for years I finally bought it when it came back in stock. It’s perfect for learning how theremins work and how to play. Other theremins will need an amplifier or speaker that meets the frequency range. This lets you practice your hand movements and has a ton of fun settings for different effects. It’s expensive but theremins are. Even one you build yourself without a speaker is close to $200. It also runs the risk your bank account might get flagged as fraudulent so the bank freezes your account. So you have no access to your checking account or savings account. Then the bank gives you vague information for two weeks and you see terrifying stories online about people who had to wait months to get their money back. Then 3 weeks later a check comes in the mail for slightly less than what you thought was in your account but you’ll never know because you haven’t had access to your online account since they froze your account. Better safe than sorry. It’s about convenience really.

Zero regrets. This thing is so cool and easy to play. I bought this on a whim and was worried it would be too difficult to play or that the sound quality of the built in speaker wouldn’t be up to par. However, I was proved wrong. Very fun instrument. No lessons required (but I did find some pretty solid ones on YouTube:)

This is a good Theremin for learning basics, producing good quality sound and is easy and fun to use. It’s good enough to help me decide if I want to get a better model later and studio guests will probably enjoy playing with it between sessions. It was shipped rapidly but arrived late due to extremely bad weather that lasted days, eventually delivered quickly and in perfect condition immediately after the storm passed.

これは凄い、圧倒的なサプライズです。 買ってよかった。

Ha llegado muy rápido y en perfecto estado. Ahora a aprender a tocarlo, que no es sencillo para nada

Commandé il y'a 3 jours avec livraison entre 1 et 2 semaines, je l'ai reçu ce matin. Bravo pour le service. Je connaissais l'histoire du thérémine depuis longtemps mais ne trouvais aucun intérêt à en acheter un. C'était un bruit un peu irritant et difficile à jouer. Puis, il y'a quelques jours, j'ai vu une vidéo sur YT au sujet de ce modèle. 3 choses m'intéressaient: 1) la possibilité de jouer la gamme des notes ou jouer toute la courbe de fréquences: 2) la liste de presets pour changer de sonorité: 3) la sortie CV pour le brancher sur mes autres synthés. Au bout de 4 heures, je n'utilise plus la "pitch correction"; les possibilités infinies de modulation entre les deux antennes sont incroyables. Selon la forme d'onde, on peut même moduler la tonalité avec l'antenne "volume". J'ai maintenant envie de le brancher sur un de mes synthés modulaires pour voir les effets sur les filtres. Rajouter un processeur multi-effets comme le Zoom G3Xn, que j'ai acheté récemment, et vous avez le plus grand contrôleur de synthé qui existe. Même si vous n'êtes pas musicien, vous pouvez l'utiliser pour exprimer vous pensées intérieures. Je donnerais 10 étoiles si je pouvais. En plus, c'est un Moog, c'est du sérieux.

Schnelle Lieferung. Das Instrument ist es wert und in Kombination mit externen Lautsprechern noch besser (mehr Bässe). Kalibrierung ist absolut wichtig und dann ist die empfindlichkeit wie sie sein soll. Klasse, nun heißt es lernen.

Arrived well ahead of advertised delivery time A new take on a very old instrument, you still have to know how to play Theremin and I found the pitch correction more of a distraction than a help. The sounds are good you get a Moog synth!. One good feature it shows the note you are playing on it's display very helpful if you are learning. Very easy to set up and get started. I also own an original Moog Theremin there is no comparison with the original sound. but If you want alternative sounds and that pitch readout for learning this is a good buy
