GB: The Theremini is a re-imagination of one of the
oldest electronic musical instrument in history and Bob Moogs first love the
Theremin. Its design fuses the experience of performing with an instrument you
dont actually touch, with a powerful sound engine derived from Moogs
award-winning synthesizer, Animoog. The Theremini guarantees immediate success
to any player at any skill level, while providing new ways to experiment with
music, education, and gestural control.
Assistive pitch quantization allows each player to
adjust the instrument's level of playing difficulty. At the maximum position,
the Theremini will play every note in a selected scale perfectly, making it
impossible to play a wrong note. As this control is decreased, more expressive
control of pitch and vibrato becomes possible. When set to minimum, the
Theremini will perform as a traditional Theremin - the analog heterodyning
oscillator controls pitch and there is absolutely no assistance.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 educating younger players.
