Introducing a theremin-inspired electronic instrument for modern creators
Theremon+ is a self-contained electronic instrument played without physical contact—your hand movements in the air control pitch and volume. It’s based on the classic theremin, but reimagined for modern music-making with a focus on playability, portability, and creative features.
Theremon+ marks the next step in the evolution of our original Theremon DIY kit—and a major milestone as our first fully assembled, non-DIY instrument.
Like its predecessor, Theremon+ uses two sensor fields: one hand controls pitch, the other volume. The original Theremon earned its place in musical setups worldwide as a compact, dependable workhorse. With Theremon+, we’ve expanded on that legacy with enhanced processing power and a suite of new features that unlock exciting creative possibilities.
New additions include:
- Two wavetable voices for an accompaniment section with built-in arpeggiator and drum patterns
- Song Play mode, allowing players to chain parts for automatic key changes
- Song Trigger mode, where players can trigger key changes on the fly
- A new effects section with delay, high-pass filter, and improved stereo reverb
- Hardware MIDI input and output on 3.5mm TRS jacks
- A durable sheet metal enclosure
All this comes in addition to the original Theremon’s feature set.

Production
We’re in the advanced prototype stage of the Theremon+ project and aiming to keep the price close to that of the original by taking advantage of economies of scale. To help make that happen, we’re planning a Kickstarter campaign to fund the first production run in the second half of 2025.
