Overview
In a living room with a phone nearby, the Otamatone Cube Techno is a touch-sensitive electronic instrument that links to a smartphone or tablet through the OTM Link standard.
The reason to consider it is the app link, which lets the tone be changed from a phone or tablet. The limit is how little is stated about sound range, power and whether it works without the app.
Who it's for
A casual player who enjoys unusual gadgets and a phone-driven sound. Musicians who need a documented synthesizer should look at a conventional model.
Pros and cons
- Smartphone app link
- IOS and Android supported
- Very light body
- Black ABS plastic shell

- Accessories not included
Performance notes
Playing is by touch, and the OTM Link lets the pre-downloaded musical app change the tone of the instrument. The listing does not state the pitch range or how the touch surface maps to notes.
