For over 60 years, Moog theremins have captured the imagination of players and audiences alike. Most recently over the last two decades, Moog's Etherwave Standard and Etherwave Plus have set the bar of performance theremin design. Now, the all‐time highest selling theremin models get an update to become simply Etherwave Theremin.
The theremin's elegant simplicity and unparalleled expressivity fueled Bob Moog's lifelong love affair with the instrument, from building his first theremin at age 14 and completing his final theremin design at age 70. Today, Etherwave Theremin carries on this legacy with a design that is refined for the modern theremin performer.
Combining analog playability with unprecedented performance potential, Moog's Etherwave Theremin provides an accurate five‐octave pitch range and balanced spacing between notes for a highly sophisticated degree of playability. Updated analog electronics have been used to create Bob Moog's classic theremin circuit design while improving bass response in the lower registers.
