The pedals are of the quality that we all have associated wioth the name Moog and include a filter based on the one found in the Minimoog, a ring modulator, a 12 Stage Phaser (based on an earlier version) and a limited edition Analog delay. The Theremin come in a variet of shapes and sizes and they are true to the sound and designs of the late Leo Theremin.
