What is an Otamatone? The Otamatone is a cute, quirky and fun electronic musical toy, characterized by its octagonal note-shaped body, adorable moving mouth and silly, humming and hilariously off-kilter "voice". It was developed by design company Maywa Denki and launched in Japan in 2009. Since then, it has been the country's best-selling musical toy. How does it work? The Otamatone produces electronic tones that you can control by the position of your finger on the touch-sensitive fretboard. A switch on the back lets you select an octave and move your fingers up and down to play different tones. Open the Otamatone's mouth with a press to change the sound from a hum to an "ahh" and create a "wah wah" effect. Technical data ● "Line output": This means the Otamatone can be connected to an amplifier. ● "App": The Otamatone could have multiple effect sound by connecting an app on the phone. The product was packed with an upgraded high-quality cardboard box. It is strong enough for any international shipping.
