Hell yeah! A full orchestra of otamatones. I can already imagine the fancy dancy expensive high-quality otamatones and everyone in suits being super serious and professional. All those little otamatone faces looking at the conductor waiting to open their chubby mouths and singing perfectly in tune and harmonized with the other otamatone sections. I’d pay to see that.

@Drewzdev 2 года назад

I would buy one just to be a part of this experience. I expect it would be like watching a train wreck with a train full of babies. You know it would be horrific, but are you going to not watch it over and over? If it actually turns out even half way decent it would be epic to watch.

I love my otamatone. By the way, Tama in Japanese means ball and the o in the front adds politeness. The word Kendama actually means sword ball since katana is also pronounced as ken like in kendo. The way of the sword. It is fun to learn about language. It is super fun to learn music. Music is a super fun language. \m/ :)

Are the notes evenly distributed? If so it should be fairly easy to index them in whole notes and make some kind of easily identifiable notches, grooves, or holes on the side, as reference points. Could be done to simulate frets or simply to have the middle- or fix points, like on an accordion.
