StylophoneStylosette – Cassette-Style Mini Synth with Touch Keyboard, FX, Speaker & Expansion Port – Portable, Battery-Powered Analog Sound Machine with More Features Than Any Mini Synth

This thing is super fun!Don't be surprised to see no back cover. It's by design and is perfectly fine.

I own lots of Debruq instruments. This is a great addition to my collection, I especially love the Stylosette, patching ability. You can carry it in your pocket and play it anywhere. It's very easy to play. Setting up connectivity circuits is fun, I can even play it through my cat. :) The reverb and delay makes some cool gritty and cat inspired growling tones. It sounds great when connected to my amps and played through effects pedals. I plan on experimenting with the patch ports to see what can happen with equipment like my Moog Mavis and Verkstat. The Stylosette is more than a desktop toy, it is small sound engine with a lot of potential. For the price it is a must have for anyone who likes to experiment with sound.

Very fun but came in with the Octave key broken :// not workingOtherwise hella fun !

It is the coolest! I had another miniature synthesizer but this one is way better. I plan to use it with my xylophone.

The cassette tape theme is cute, but not the best choice for storage / portability. The wires, clips, etc. aren't easily placed back into the cassette case, making the "carrying case" sort of irrelevant. Operation takes getting used to but could probably be designed better.I'd think of this as more of a fun, science fair project than a serious music creation tool.On the plus side, it uses 2 AAA batteries (included) - that are easy to find when it comes time to replace the power source.At about $40, it's fairly priced for what it is. But it may be best to go with the original this seems to be a knock-off of.

I don't know if I got a defective unit or if that is how it is designed. You can start by tuning the device using an electronic tuner; there are phone apps that do that. After tuning it you can press the first note (let's say C) along with the octave button. That raises that note to the next octave. Then you can press the last node which is also the same note has that. That has a different pitch! You can do that a few times alternately and see what I mean. If they sound exactly the same then it is not a design flaw and I got a bad unit. I'm returning it

This little thing is so much fun and is loaded with great features. The one negative I have is that the minimum volume is unfortunately not capable of going to 0db, so even at the quietest, it’s still got quite a bit of voice to it. Otherwise, it sounds great and has some cool options for connecting it to conductive items around your house, and even to other effects such as LFO. Great value for the price as well. Definitely recommend!

Very fun to add to any music or noise, fun to play with the accessories and connect circuits. Plays with two AAA batteries and plugs in any mixer
