The Moog Polyphonic Theremin

Introduced in 1928, the Theremin is one of the earliest and most widely known electronic instruments played by artists manipulating the pitch and volume of invisible sound waves radiated from a single antenna with their hands.



Now, Moog Music engineers carrying on the legacy of visionary founder, Robert Moog have announced the first major technical Theremin design advance in over 40 years.

The PolyTheremin™ incorporates bleeding edge IsoDirectional Inductive Oscillator Technology, to isolate space around five individual pitch antennas thus enabling each to be played simultaneously (finger-by-finger) without interference from it’s companion antennas.

This revolutionary concept breaks the long held belief that the Theremin could only be a monophonic instrument.
