What Theremin does
Stagecraft’s Theremin is built on a hand-gesture control principle and works as a template for new ways of shaping sound. Its output is unconventional, producing bleeps, bloops, whooshes and buzzes that a traditional instrument does not give. Because the instrument is always monophonic with portamento, pitch slides smoothly from one note to the next as the hand moves up and down. A quantization option snaps input pitches to a chosen scale, so the slide passes through every note of the selected scale. The result is close to what traditional theremin players spend years developing.
Key features
- Monophonic portamento. The instrument is always mono and glides continuously between notes as the pitch changes.
- Scale quantization. Input pitches can be quantized to a selected scale, so the slide moves through the notes of that scale.
- Unconventional timbre. The sound output covers bleeps, bloops, whooshes and buzzes beyond a conventional instrument voice.
Who it is for
Sound designers and producers looking for expressive pitch glides and unusual timbres will find the instrument’s gesture-based control relevant to their work.
