https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErMNT2f-b5U ■ Rather than “playing,” it’s “playing with sound.” Two effect functions Delay with adjustable length and repeat count, Vibrato with adjustable speed and depth. Just play it and make some adjustments to instantly create a “real” sound. The sound changes just by turning the knob, and the same sound can have a completely different feel depending on the settings. Weighting just 45g, battery-powered, and with a compact dedicated case, it’s portable enough to take anywhere, making it a major attraction. Cooperation with other equipment In addition to a 3.5mm output, it’s equipped with expansion terminals (CV/LFO, Octave IN/OUT, etc.). It has depth and a high level of perfection that even advanced users will enjoy. Example of integration: ■Two Stylo Sets → Harmony and unison playing is now possible. ■ Send a sound fluctuation signal from an external source → Add sound fluctuations to match the tempo of a rhythm machine, changing the sound rhythmically at a constant tempo. ■Automatic playback lets the Stylo Set play melodies on its own →Adjust vibrato and delay in real time, and even add additional sounds with an apple or spoon while playing.

Also, because it naturally introduces children to the process of making, trying, and fixing, it’s also suitable for children’s STEM education*/independent research. We hope that it will spark an interest in music and learning, starting with a “this looks kind of interesting” feeling. *STEM education = A method of learning that crosses the boundaries of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through the cycle of making, trying, and fixing.
