THEREMINI FEATURES & CONTROLS

The Front panel controls are kept to a minimum, allowing both hands to

remain free to play the Theremini. The most frequently used controls—

Volume, Pitch Correction, Effect Amount, and Presets—feature active

knobs for fast access. Panel buttons allow quick selection of musical

Scale, Root note, and Effect Preset. The backlit LCD screen displays

visual feedback from a built-in tuner. The Setup button offers access

to the Calibration procedure and other deeper levels of control.

EXPLORING THE THEREMINI

Before we dig in to the controls and connectors, let’s quickly look at a

few important features of the Theremini body itself.

INTERNAL SPEAKER

The Theremini is equipped with a built-in monitor speaker. This speaker

allows you to setup and play anywhere without the need for an additional

ampliﬁer or speakers. The output level is controlled by the VOLUME knob

on the front panel.

NOTE: When headphones or earbuds are connected to the Headphone jack on the

front panel, the internal speaker is muted, allowing for truly private practice.

PITCH ANTENNA STORAGE

The bottom panel provides convenient storage for the removable Pitch

antenna, making the Theremini easy to transport. To store the antenna,

place one end of the pitch antenna into the catch tab side of the storage area.

Lightly push the catch tab and press the other end of the antenna snugly

into place. You can also place the antenna catch tab end ﬁrst. To remove the

antenna from storage, hold the catch tab and pull the antenna out.

STAND ADAPTOR

Also on the bottom panel is a 3/8” stand-mount ﬁxture. This allows the

Theremini to be mounted directly on a microphone stand or camera tripod.

While the 3/8” size is quite common, an inexpensive 5/8” female to 3/8”

male adapter can be used to accommodate a 5/8” mic stand.
