# THEREMIX - Virtual Theremin

THEREMIX is a progressive web app that brings the interaction of a physical theremin into the virtual space. The virtual theremin can be controlled either with mouse/touch inputs or with gestures through a webcam via human post tracking provided by PoseNet. This app celebrates the 100th anniversary of the theremin, invented by Léon Theremin in 1920. A century after its conception, the theremin continues to be a flexible electronic instrument with an ethereal tone.



  



## Basic Theremin

THEREMIX's basic theremin mode has mouse/touch input or gesture control options built in. Adjust the sound further by playin with the oscillator type, scale/key/octave range, and Glide toggles.

## MIDI Controller (Beta)

THEREMIX's MIDI controller mode uses the same input controls and maps them to modify the attack, sustain, delay, and release of the synths. This mode is still in beta and works most smoothly in Chrome at the moment. Features 14 demo track, with user uploaded MIDI/BG image to be a feature in the next release.
